Saturday and its throwing it down with rain. Breakfast and its still throwing it down. We decide not to go to see the Tigers play. Its still throwing it down with rain. I rig up my laptop to the TV and we get to watch the Tigers match from the comfort of the sofa. An attritional game in the rain. Tigers win with the last play of the game 13 -12.

There are chores to do and things to be topped up but of most importance is the lack of chocolate. I go to the shops in the rain dressed in a parka coat that is used in only extreme conditions, like rainy days with no chocolate. I return with a bag of goodies including two types of chocolate. Its time for dinner and the joys of Strictly Come Dancing. I cannot believe I’m addicted to it, I think I’m jealous. When anyone asks me what I would have been if I could have my life over again my answer is always dancer. It would have been disastrous as I have no sense of rhythm and also I am pretty tone deaf. However the thought of being able to express being to music is very enticing. No need for talking or words, ideal for a dyslexic. It also means not having to explain oneself to anyone. Anyway by the end of strictly chocolate is eaten and the blog is started, and its still raining.
