meanwhile i took esther to tennis which took ages because both her doubles and singles matches were evenly matched and every time it looked like one side would win the other would claw back.  we were there in the scorching sun and howling rain between 8 and nearly 11!

whilst esther was playing tennis i popped two buildings along with the car to get two new tyres fitted on to my car, because the spare i’d had put on last week was borderline legal.

it was excellent they could do the tyre whilst esther was tennising

we went along with our friends the Irvines.  James has a new camera so we could be shooting buddies too which was fun

i leave you with this excellent service.  it’s free advertising, but i think they deserve it due to their personalised number plate and nature of their job (pun intended)
