Went swimming this morning. w00t! Was recognised by one of the people on the desk, w00t! Something was wrong with the heating and it was really chilly in the water. unw00t! So I only did 10 lengths then came out for one of their over heated showers to warm up again. I'm used to those baths being a bit on the cool side, so you have to keep swimming to keep warm but this was getting a tad ridiculous.
On my way out I noticed someone had been doing bits of origami - a triceratops and a flower. So I did them one of my elephants. Now to remember how to do the other one for next week. See, I don't just do elephant 'jokes'. I can fold them too!
Apparently there'd been a break in yesterday & glass had gotten into the water. So they had to empty it to remove the glass, then fill it again. Pity they don't have a hot tap from which to fill it as well. Those who'd been yesterday said it was colder today! Was glad to go round the pub to warm up, even with the smoke. Roll on the smoking ban for pubs!
Then did the market & came home. It's a beautiful day today & the chillly northerly wind has dropped significantly. The weather forecasters are all talking about how it'll be getting milder over the weekend. Blow that for a lark! That's just weatherspeak for it'll be getting overcast & damp again. Yukky!
Also got hold of one of the children's tomato pots at half price in Woolies. So that may well be this year's tomatoes - tumbler style. Also got some basil & parsley seeds two for the price of one. That'll be sowings for next month, better get the garden, & the sunny windowsills sorted out for then. But right now I'm shattered, so it's back to bed for me, I think, once the washing machine has landed and I've pegged out the towel & cossie.
Q: How do you fold an elephant?
A: Like this! *Takes square of paper and proceeds to demonstrate, two ways!*
