Introduction

Good Evening to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.

It has been a week of mixed thoughts and ideas this week, as well as being totally shattered as I type these few notes. This is possibly due to the fact that I have done nothing but relax since lunchtime.

The morning brought a major problem regarding the cooking of the Sunday Dinner. It is possibly four maybe five years since our main oven packed up. Due to the fact that it is an integral part of the kitchen units, replacing it was never an option, due to the cost of ripping all the units out to get at the oven, then replacing the oven.

To give ue somewhere to cook, bought a mini oven, which has been fine until a couple of days ago when I burnt some pies, thought that this was my fault, until yesterday when it did it again, on the middle shelf at a low temperature, also after a short time as well.

It is obvious that the temperature control has gone, so what to do. I have years ago when we lived in Germany done roast potatoes in a deep fryer, since returning to the UK used the halogen. Still have one, so hoped that I could remember how to do them, they were OK and that is all that can be said for them.

At least I could cook the pulled pork in he microwave.

The Last Few Days

Did say that I would continue to sort products and items in the old files into dedicated ones so that I knew what I was doing, this I have continued to do.

When reading some of the files and products, I came across a number of items that I had intended to put into a shop, had some bits started.

This has resulted in me getting all the book files together in one place, well nearly as I do have a lot so sort out at the moment. Some of these books are re-written ebooks, also have a lot of colouring pages from some time ago, these I did begin to sort into books to download and sell.

It is a question now of getting things totally sorted if I do want to get the shop going with products. It is fortunate that I have so many articles ready for the website that I can afford to look at this in a sencible way, in other words not rush.

Two days this week, should say mornings, were spent in a local supermarket selling poppies. I did enjoy it seeing many old friends, though I did have a chair I prefer to stand so it has worn me out a little, hence today doing nothing but relaxing.

My general health was not helped on Tuesday when I decided to walk into Town to the supermarket, going down hill for som 2km was fine, coming back was a different story.

The Next Few Days

Will continue to see what books I have and get them all together, will be busy at the weekend, will observe the two minutes silence in the Town Centre on Saturday, then lay wreaths at two of our local War Memorials on the Sunday, one in the morning the other in the afternoon. The one on the afternoon I read the lesson at the Church Service, then lead, with the Vicar, a short service at the War Memorial.

It is always a very moving and emotional weekend for me as I remember family members and friends, who lost their lives serving their Country.

Conclusion

Apart from nearly overdoing thingss not been a bad week, as it has brought back to me items which I was sorking on a longtime ago and which really do ned sorting out.

Did a little revision, but did not touch AI.

Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy.

Please do stay safe,

God Bless.
