Brenda

Our friend Brenda called in this afternoon while waiting for the central heating chap who was coming to look at her boiler. She is moving into a house in the village in a week or two so jus at the moment having the painter etc doing work. Of course it was cold in her house so she called in to get warm.
Brenda is a superb hostess & to be invited to one of her many home cooked meals at her house is a real treat.

Three good things:
1. I spent a lot of my day ironing shirts & blouses ready for summer. Lots of creases from being packed away for a year but now all hanging up nicely in our new wardrobe.
2. The electrician came with his tall ladder to take down the carbon monoxide alarm which had gone faulty & started beeping. While he was here he took the cardboard notice off one of the Velux windows.
3. I have sold two Killim rugs online local marketplace. Picked up & paid up today.
She looks very relaxed and happy, and also good in black and white! I know how you feel about b&w though, I tried my post for today in b&w but still preferred the colour version.

What a super portrait, I love it!

What a lovely portrait! She has a gentle smile. Nice that your friend is moving to the village. I suspect you will be having lots of catch ups over coffee!

Nice that she could come and spend with you in your cosy home..

PS. I decided to convert my pic to b&w after all!

Her scarf looks especially good in B&W but I wonder what colour it really is! It could be actually black and white!

@maggiemae Just checked maggie, it is black & white!

Brenda looks so nice! It is a little early here to get summer clothes out. Always lots of last minute items in a new home.

@beryl I just love having visitors Beryl….always happy for anyone calling in.

Lovely - so good to have friends who call in like that and who you can call on at any time!!
I'm not a B&W person but I do see lots of photos in B&W if I am on my phone after 9pm!!! Trying to make myself disciplined about going to bed at a reasonable hour and not having colour certainly helps me put the phone away!!
Nice to sell things locally when you are not needing them anymore. We were in a lovely furniture store in Aberdeen today and I could have refurnished the lounge and family room no problem!!! But that's not happening!!!
On a positive note, David and family are fairly confident they can come in the summer and we have Visas in place for a trip to Australia. Just need Laura to confirm the best time for them. Still working at home can be tricky if visitors around!!
