Miss Piggy?
 Dark, gloomy day. Home with great striding steps and devoured sandwiches by the fire. Ally pink and glowing. A welcome sight. At 6:45 we got a bus into town, and then took one to Westfield at Rawdon. We arrived at Dave L's at 7:50 and found him entertraining MM and Marita. We gathered around the TV and watched Dave's pirate copy of 'E.T', the yet-to-be released film from Steven Spielberg. Ally wasn't looking forward to this at all. Science fiction isn't her scene, but we were pleasantly surprised. Quite a touching little offering really. The creature is a combination of the Hunchback of Notre Dame and Miss Piggy. E.T. = extra terrestrial.  Marita and Ally sat with damp eyes at the end of the film. Albert & Joan L joined us at 10:30pm for a viewing of our wedding video, sandwiches and coffee. Dave drove us home at 12:30. To bed. Visits to Tennyson Street are always packed with nostalgia.

A warm, gentle day. Ally and I took off to town with Samuel at 1pm. We didn't take the pram and I carried baby for two hours, by the end...
