Saturday 29th November

Unfortunately it‘s the season for 18^th Birthday parties for our daughter – very difficult when they have to work so hard for their A levels on how strict to be about home time, clubbing and all these things. So we’ve agreed this was the last late night until mocks are out of the way, and time to buckle down to some hard work!

Time to deliver slightly belated birthday presents to one of my godsons and his sister and then a lovely supper  – but I was the only one doing dryvember there – which was fine as I’m a pro now! So many of us have said how virtuous we are feeling and how we’ll sip and savour come the 1^st of December – no desire to over indulge or ‘catch up’ at all! It’s amazing how fast the month has passed! Drink this evening? My old friend elderflower cordial and plenty of sparkling water!
