Today was a very bright but cold day, I was not sure about my cycling to Windsor... However, I felt I should try and keep up with Sheila, our local GG hero, who was already out and about on her bike volunteering at the Juniors Park Run, when I was getting ready to go visit Mrs D in Windsor and she came by. Decision made, I hopped on my bike and off I went. Mrs D is feeling more tired and lacking energy lately, but she brightens up whenever I show up and tells me stories. Today was no different, she told me how the other day, when the carer came by, she was in the bathroom. The carer called her, but could not hear Mrs D when she answered. So much so, that the carer called the main office to report that Mrs D was nowhere to be seen!!!... Quite a disappearing act she did there! 😆 Photo is from Wisley Glow Show, somehow it seemed befitting...
