About time too; Spring has sprung at last!

Its been an age since I last posted a post. Life is just too short, or rather the days haven't enough hours I could do with more than 24. As you can all imagine I have been very busy the last weeks; what with my Mac training once a week which entails going up to London for the day. I thoroughly enjoy these sessions and have learnt a tremendous amount. Did iMovie and iDVD which was extremely useful for getting my summer movies edited as well as doing iPhoto for the photos. As you all know I turned these into album books as my Christmas presents for the family. All except for Louise as I am still working on that one. Her movies have to be burnt in the American video mode for viewing. Not Pal but the other one NTSC. Meanwhile Apple Mac have brought out a new version of iLife09 which has many more features and makes the editing especially in iMovie much better and easier. Just in time for the movies of the Demetres, and once I have finished these it will all go off as an Easter present.

The other thing I have to report is the visit the St. Albanites made to Peperharow Road on the Wednesday of their half term in February. Caitlin and Fiona were off to view Farnham Art School in view of the photography course that Caitlin might want to pursue. Its is still one of the best in the country as it was all those years ago when when Micko went there in the '70s. Of course it is still early times and things or her mind may change somewhat by the time she is 18. But she is growing up fast; and so is Shaun. He stayed with us while the others went to Farnham and went with us on a Jellies' walk. It was a new one for him. John had to go to the bank in Godalming and Shaun and I mooched about there after having gone to Waitrose to get some things for our supper/tea which we all had before they went home again

here he is disguised as a sheik

The bank took longer than planned so Shaun and I lurked in the Bay tree Cafe and had a drink and played with my new mobile phone. he was much better at using it than I am and was able to give me quite a few tips!! oh to be a member of today's youth.

Once home we all had our meal which was enjoyed by all of us. And all too soon it was time for them to be homeward bound. But not before Caitlin invited us to come and see her play Beatrice in Much to Do About Nothing on the 23rd of March. Will report back on that after that date, we are definitely going!!!

Meanwhile spring has definitely sprung there are daffodils out in our garden and polyanthus as well as out in the surrounding; tulips appearing every where in my pots or surprisingly elsewhere in the garden; but not in flower yet. It is also warmer when it isn't overcast or raining. We've had quite a harsh winter but hopefully that is now a distant memory

Thats it folks till next time (but don't hold you breath it may be a while) the Jellies send greeting too.
