Exorcist needed

The cat bought in a very tiny snail which I tried to take away from him, but he ate it, cracking it like a nut, but a piece of it must have got stuck on his tooth as he was comically trying to take it off. Obviously this cat has a French ancestor.

We had rather a subdued Sunday recovering from our adventures yesterday. Pete called to see if we had got home without too much hassle. We watched an old 'Ello 'Ello, otherwise pottered around keeping a low profile.

This morning Mas went shopping, and bought some batteries for his keyboard, the same make as the original ones, and magically they worked, and the keyboard was working again. Once Mas began using it as usual after some time a message came up saying someone else was reading his emails. This then involved contacting the help line and changing the passwords.

I found that I had been billed for a newsletter which I thought was free, so had to sort that out. In the meantime the sound on the TV went! We contacted the TV repair man again, and he said he did not know what the matter was, but he would call in again later to see what was going on.

Later we found that the TV was working properly again, so phoned the TV man again and told him that the TV worked, but we thought maybe we needed the services of an exorcist instead.

Swimming and bathing hazards

I spoke to Diane today, and then Mas and I went swimming. It is a long time since we last went, luckily the pool was almost empty and as usual both felt refreshed afterwards.

I was going to give Margaret and John some complimentary tickets for the British Art Fair, and saw Poppy and Ben on the way and we talked for a while. John gave me some eating apples that he had picked today, and we chatted briefly. They told me that recently they were going to bed when they heard the lady across the street scream. Apparently, as she was going to bed, she walked into her bathroom only to find a strange man there; he had climbed through the window. He ran away as soon as she screamed, thank goodness.

In the evening we watched an episode of New Tricks before bed.
