Little secrets.

Well it's gone pretty cold here again, blame me for getting the summer clothes out! On Monday I couldn't get warm, but in the evening had to pop to Daughter's to take some stuff of theirs, I put a sweatshirt on before I left, plus fleece and felt warm for the first time. Their boiler has been fixed, a valve that had been fitted the wrong way round has been reversed and at last they have decent water pressure. Their flat actually felt warm too.
Yesterday they went for another of their appointments. I now have permission to tell you that it was for a 20 week scan. We are to become Grandparents in August, DV. It was all very secretive at first because of  last year's disappointment, and trauma but everything is ok this time, there was a scan at 6 weeks to check that the baby was in the right place.
The other week when we went to MK it was for maternity clothes, and we had a jolly good browse in John Lewis  baby department too. We had a slight good natured disagreement over what are now called 'Travel Systems', but in my day were prams or carry cots.
Daughter's husband is still taking his driving lessons and she has warned him she will not drive herself to the hospital. Unfortunately we no longer have a maternity unit in our town, we did have a birthing unit but that was closed too. If the Tories get in they have promised to try and reopen our hospital but I don't think they will achieve much before August. there are still clinics there, a walk-in GP centre and a rehab ward but that is about all.
Personally I get a bit sick of the politicians rabbiting on, but there are a couple more weeks to go yet.
Nothing much will change, we just swap one bunch of sinners for another.
Husband's tomato seeds are beginning to shoot, so he's excited about that. We have a 'mini' greenhouse now, and hopefully he will soon be able to transfer them from the window sill. When Daughter was here she commented on how lovely it was to have the sun on the living room in the mornings, they don't get much sun where they are. It is nice, but in a heatwave it can be unbearable. Well Husband will be home soon, so I'd better move, and download the e-mails.
