Had two calls today that took over 2 1/2 hours of my time. Then heard that a guy I worked with a few years ago had died of a Cerebral Haemorrhage. Life's a bit cruel and he was thousands of miles from home too. I can't say that we had a good working relationship but he was pleasant enough company and bright as a button and as sharp as a razor.
That's the second death I've heard about this week and another funeral is next week of someone else I know.
On a positive note my Ghee has arrived and I'm looking forward to getting used to using it. My Indian friend told me where to find that at my local supermarket and also suggested I try the Indian Cottage Cheese which is superior in all ways! So he says :-)
We went out to lunch today but we all smell of smoke as the fire which was raging away was also blowing back down the chimney and so we all smell like a barbeque :-) I had a superb mixed grill and gave away my chips (fries) to everyone else. It was all in all a very reasonable meal and I also managed two nice glasses of Rioja - most civilised.
Now I need to sort out my calendar and arrangements as we are away in just over a week and I have calls on my time all over the place. I need to seriously DIARISE - ohhh that shows off my days working for a US Corporate. I learnt some incredible hair raising phrases there. Shudders!
Anyway - the dining room is finished much to my surprise - Mrs. F. managed to sort it all out so we can have the party here on Sunday. Great
As it is late Friday afternoon I now fancy wandering downstairs and perhaps popping open a bottle of red (not just for me I hasten to add).
