The matriach of the family (ie Nana) is due out of Airedale General Hospital sometime tomorrow. She has been working with the physio department learning how to descend stairs, and then how to climb them. She managed the descent OK but had a bit of difficuty with the ascent (there were eight stairs), so the hospital have decided to send her home in an ambulance with two crew to see how she manages the stairs at home.
Nana's godchild (Catherine) is taking duty as carer when Nana arrives home, but she already assists a lady in Bradley on Sundays and Mondays, so it will fall to us to be responsible for Nana on these days.
One of Hannah's friends from University has driven down from Barrow in Furness (Walney Island to be exact) to join the celebrations tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the "Hen Do", and the bride-to-be, her sisters, mum and various other friends are going to York Races for the day. Fascinators, feathers, buttons, beads, bows etc are in great profusion at the moment, as the ladies are busy preparing their headgear. I just hope that the ancient City of York can survive the onslaught as this motley crew descend on the city!
Hannah tells me that the last of the kittens (Lenny by name!) has gone to its new home, so now the houseshold is looking a little depleted. From four kittens, a cat and two dogs, they are now down to two dogs and a cat.
Replies are beginning to come through the letterbox from those who will be attending the "Wedding of the Year."
I suppose it's time I got round to thinking about preparing a Brides Fathers Speech now!
