Symphonic afternoon!

Poppy had her walk today..and shower..when I was drying her, she darted out (I forgot to close or block the toilet door!) and T was downstairs..maybe she smelled T..haha! Then T brought her to the garden and ask her jump here and there again! Arghhsss..anyway he spoils her again la...add ham into dog food..grrr..I can't be bothered liao. Let him do what he likes...if Poppy acts funny when L comes back and if she asks then I'll say lor.

Today as forecasted, it was pretty warm..but chilly when the winds blow. It felt strange not wearing any leggings to go out so wore stockings instead..haha! Also to cover my pimple scar and a blueblack. Wore my M&S dress with a tank top cos too low cut without it. Brought a cardigan in case it gets chilly but didn't use it at all. The buses were stuffy...hope they switch on the air con in summer!!

Oh ya, the OT at the Outpt Brain Injury Clinic replied and agreed for me to go down to their centre to have a look at their services!! She proposed a date in July..wow right? They plan so advance? hahaha..anyway it'll be a great opportunity to compare the services they provide here and back home. Would love to visit an acute hospital too and apparently the hospital that this outpatient is attached to has a neurorehab unit too! Hope can see more la...think the other PT vocational assessment one not interested cos non-money generating...didn't even reply despite 2 emails!! Either that or he's arrogant (as my impression of him when I saw him at the conference I attended in early March).

Went in earlier for the preconcert talk which was pretty interesting and is free seating so sat on the lower ground. Then snapped some pics of the hall and outside while waiting for performance to start.


from where I was seated

Most of the audience were elderly and a few young people. My seat was really good! 1st row in the circle and I happened to see the tickets of the couple who sat next to me and the price was £37!!! I'm vvv lucky to be able to catch this for just £5! Realised there are some free performances at the cafe bar at 5pm on some Fridays too but I guess u'll have to buy a drink else paiseh. Shall look out for more of such concerts. The Orchestra was pretty good! At one point I was actually quite sleepy..not cos it is boring but it was soo soothing. Saw an elderly man doze off sitting at the choir loft (opp where I was).

Ended around 4.15pm..so about 2h. Anyway I wonder why they sell ice cream at concert and musical interval..cos tt day when I watched Billy Elliot too..and SK told me they sell cup ice cream during the interval.

After tt went to Home Bargains..wanted to find round hair brush..cos my hairstyle needs curling in else will look messy. But they only had the flat ones..but I managed to find cupcake liners..thot I should put the steamed egg cakes into them when I make for PF. Then wanted to go to Bearwood (Aldi and Poundland) but the bus took sooo long to come and it was already 5.30pm..by the time I reach there, Poundland may have closed. So I didn't bother.

Cooked instant pasta and added ham and bratwurst for dinner tonight...yumssss! No plans for tmr so might just wash up Poppy's stuff and air dry since next few days will be sunny and warm.
