Another bits and bobs day.

Friday 26th August 2011
 Pam and Maddy went into Kirkwall shopping so Gareth and I were left to our own devices for a bit. Very pleasant it was to.
Gareth gave me a hand to get the frame up for the roof of the lean-to shed. It went much easier than I thought it would but then things are always easier with 2 instead of 1.

After Pam and Maddy got back we took Maddy down to Hamish and Hilda's to play with their grandaughter Ellen who is just about a year older than Maddy. Gareth and i stopped for a bit just to make sure that they were OK together and then borrowed a transformer from Hamish and went to put up some lights in the shed that is being used for the U3A barbeque on and to meet the band to check if there is anything extra that they need.
There were just a few alterations but nothing major so all is set for Monday which should be a good evening.

We then returned to pick Maddy up, hoping that she had enjoyed herself and had behaved. We need not have worried. Ellen and Maddy are now the best friends in the world and when Maddy comes up next year they are going to have a sleepover. The chances are that she will have forgotten all about it in 2 weeks. Little girls are fickle things. They say that they are going to be pen pals but we will wait and see.
