After adjusting my list lots of times and finding that it slipped easily into my bag - it suddenly dawned on me that I would have to put the things on the list in my bag.

Unfortunately I couldn't find the third item on the list (a silk sheet sleeping bag) which Marilyn had warned us sternly was essential ... so a quick trip up to town was required ...

I will be organised in time ....

I will be organised in time ....... I promise.
