Afternoon all. It’s dull here but the forecast rain hasn’t yet started.
Had a long and muddy walk with Bill first thing, came home to see Joe before he left for college and I then went for a run. I’d just got back in the house as Joe walked in (I hadn’t run that far!!) . He’d driven the 10 miles to Stafford, been held up in traffic due to an accident and by the time he’d got to the car park some of his group were walking back to their cars. Today’s a staff training day that they hadn’t been told about so they’d been sent home. He then went for a run before getting stuck into his coursework.
He’s worried about Amanda. Her grandad has Alzheimer’s and sadly had a stroke yesterday, the family have been told that it’s not looking good. Of course, Manda’s really upset and is miles away in Cornwall and wants to be home but she’s coming to the end of her third year with deadlines to meet so her parents have persuaded her to stay at uni for the time being and try to allow her work take her mind off it. Joe’s going to see her this weekend anyway.
