Day 8

Day 8 - 

An early start to get Heather out of the door and onto work. Still think she is half-expecting to get fired today though - I hope she doesn't react badly if that's the end of her time there :( Hopefully the time will be well spent though and she can enjoy some normality for a change and speak to the effervescent Sophie who can never be anything less than bubbly !! :) Make a change from being exclusively around troubled souls.

So, a quick bacon buttie with rashers that are 5 days past its sell-by date - smells okay, looks okay, doesn't turn that nasty looking grey colour that pork can do when cooking and tastes good and then off to take Jake to sprint training with Havant AC down at the Mountbatten Centre. 
So for the second week in a row, we turn up and find that some other event is taking place - cycling this morning ! Watch for a bit, ask around but no-one seems to know anything, then Jake finally remembers he has Devon's number and could text her. We wander along the shoreline to the field at the back and there they are - just finished for the day !! Sprint coach Malcolm doesn't look too pleased when he hears that Jake has signed for Southampton AC and not Havant but seems okay with Jake joining in their sessions when he can train with their sprinter Leslie.

Took some rubbish pics of tyres in mud, seaweed and sights - some miight be okay for HDR'ing and hopefully some might give Heather an idea for contrasting textures etc. for her assignment. 






 Time to head out and forage for food and maybe a couple of decent, black ties. Ties purchased plus several pairs of shoes for Angie and Jake - Just Heather and me left to sort out.


Bumped into Andy Brice in Fareham for the first time in many years, seems his Father has his own troubles and is quite ill - feel for his Mum :(


Back to munch food, vainly search for shirts and shoes online, try to add a few more words to the text - very glad that Karen has sat down with Mum to compose something, at least we have the outline and the facts straight, now to augment with anecdotes etc.


Heather back off round for some sleep before her performance with December Farewell at the Commy - busy day tomorrow with Jake and me off to Guildford for the Wessex League competition.
