Monday, Monday

It has rained pretty much non-stop today. Fortunately I had no reason to leave the house so spent most of the time in one chair or another in one room or another. I expected calls from Terry lifts and Shopmobility but neither materialised. The key safe, ordered from Amazon, arrived today but I won't be able to fit it myself as I no longer have enough strength in my arms to hold a drill steady and exert the necessary pressure. However, when it is fitted, it will allow access to helpers should I be unable to let them in. Had some contact with school, it was good to catch up with events but having read reports of Gove's misguided interference with the curriculum, due for implementation in 2014, I feel relieved that I'm no longer involved. Watched an interesting programme on i-player in which Jools Holland traced a history of London through its music. Nice to hear some of songs my parents used to sing when I was a child 'Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner' etc. Pleased to see that my brother had signed the MND charter. I've put it on FB and Twitter to encourage participation.
