.. the best day with Christina yesterday. There was quite a lot of tension, but she managed to remain calm, so that was huge progress compared to how things used to be.
I suppose this would be normal in any situation where a family is living together after one of them has been away from home for ten years, but in our situation it tends to ring alarm bells.
Hopefully we'll have a better day today.
And, equally hopefully, the cooker will be repaired this afternoon, providing the wretched thing can be moved. Apparently there are other guys from the firm in the neighbourhood who are in standby to come and help shift it if it proves too much for Charles and the repairman! (Better check what it'll cost if they need to get involved!)
I'm taking Christina through to Alnwick for a meeting at lunchtime and will get some shopping while I'm there. We've got visitors (Stoke fans aaaarrrggghhh!!) for the weekend, and even though we're planning to eat out most of the time, there will still be bits and pieces we need for breakfast and for treats. (Won't be giving them any treats if we don't win!)
