I forgot to post about seeing my mother yesterday. My wife had a school reunion to attend in London, and also had to meet friends back in Colchester later in the day.
As we were to travel to London, we took the children with us. Sadly, due to roadworks, we were not able to spend as much time with her as I would have wanted and we were late to meet up for the reunion. It was good to meet the friends of my wife. I get on with the other husbands, and her friends as well.
Afterwards, we froze a bit on the way up. I did not get a chance to charge my car and we had to wait while the car charged. My son wanted to leave before it had a decent amount of charge, which meant that I could not use the heater, which meant we were very cold on the way up.
But it was good to see my Mum, and one of my cousins who was looking after her. It has been too long since I saw my cousin. It was interesting seeing my mother trying to rest by watching Trump on the TV, but her anger must have got her blood pressure into the normal range!
On getting back, I did get to watch the Arsenal match. But while I thought we were going to lose before the match, I was annoyed that we gave away a two goal lead.
