What a long day. First we had to ride into Welwyn Garden City so we could do some shopping at the Howard Centre. I needed some new trousers and shoes for work. Dawn also needed a curling iron for her hair. She said that it's getting totally out of control and needs something to get it back in order. While we were there we also picked up some tops in M&S using the money Dad and George gave her for her birthday. After a quick bite at ASK (they had a pretty good Salad Nicoise), we dropped into Morrisons on the way back.
We then spent a couple of hours with Tiny before popping into town to celebrate our anniversary. Monday will be 11 years since Dawn responded to my email looking for penpals on an MSN bulletin board. (Which by the way, having finished the first draft of the Scotland diary, is the subject for my first book to be published called 'Our Story.' Well that's what it's called at the moment.).
Anyway, we had a nice Chinese meal at Peking House and talked about all the things we had done over the last 11 years. It was amazing how many things we covered. It certainly proved that "Nothing is as certain as the unforeseen. " No one could have predicted that a simple email from Dawn saying "Write back and we'll chat some more" would lead us to where we are now.
