In the kitchen at work, one of the guys was asked how his camping trip was and did he get the games that he'd ordered. Apparently he paid about £35, plus £10 courier charge, for a big Jenga set on Ebay. It turned out to be chopped up lengths of wood, no finish at all and still showing the barcode and labels on it from the DIY shop. He was asked if he complained but he said that they put it on the camp fire. That was expensive firewood!!
This evening we went over to Singleton Barn to catch up an old friend, little Steve. The years have not been kind and he's not so little anymore....like most of us. If we hadn't seen photos of him on Facebook, it would have been tough to recognise him. I had arranged this with little Steve and it was a surprise to Glenn when we all turned up. We got a lift over in big Steve's new car. I thought I'd be cheeky and ask for a lift as Steve was joining us on his way back from dropping the kids off. Not so little Steve is back in Kent to sort out a new home for his family. They have found a place in Dover. Hopefully we will be seeing more of him soon. We might have to go back to calling him Little Steve (sorry Steve, you are still the shortest), big Steve and big big Steve, just like the old days. There was a 4th Steve too....Just Steve, or was it Vest Steve?
