Thursday.

Took a snapshot this morning of the raised bed in the middle of the garden path. The yellow pansies have given us a splash of colour all winter and now these short stemmed, bright red tulips are coming up between the pansies. The colour of the tulips almost hurts the eyes. Today we motored over to Lavenham and had lunch with friends of ours, John and Margaret. Margaret gave us a chicken casserole with lots of fresh vegetables, followed by a summer pudding; not made with a bread outer lining, but with (I think) trifle sponge. Nice contrast with the sweet sponge and sharp fruit. Very refreshing taste. Choir practice this evening- went well- followed by fitting new choir robes - which didn't. Several of them will have to be sent back and altered. Dissapointing, especially for Sylvia, who is presenting them to the choir in memory of her late husband, who was a keen musician. One of the sleeves on her robe was a good two inches longer than the other. Mine was rather tight about the chest. Ann said, "You won't be able to wear your blazer under it in winter, and then you'll freeze". Had to agree with her, so mine is to be sent back for alteration, too. Ann has just gone up to bed, so I must go too. Goodnight all.

The cassocks will only get tighter.
