Friday 4/3/11

 Today was really fun – I finished off my research on Francis Newbery, and scanned in some of his beautiful paintings of Corfe Castle and Bridport. I particularly like his painting entitled ‘The Spirit of Bridport’ – it really does I feel, encapsulate many aspects of Bridport culture and identity…..

I realised, pretty much as soon as I walked in the door this morning that I had forgotten my lunch…………. I’m supposed to be on a diet, but like a lot of people who are desperate to abstain, I failed miserably by eating TWO biscuits. I LOVE FOOD – but I am desperate to loose weight. It didn’t help that Bruce, Emily, and Margaret repeatedly attacked me with the biscuit tin, at various points during the day……..

I swear, that one day, I will make them eat all the biscuits in the tin, and then I will happily snigger and laugh at them!!......

I spent about half an hour, along with Shannon, Margaret, Emily and Sandra, folding, licking, and attaching stamps to, the almost endless mailing list………

I now sympathise with organisations that seem to spend ALL THEIR TIME doing this, because it is repetitive and tiring. Not to mention, you get a horrible crick in your neck from bending your head down…..

See you on Monday!!
