195 of 366 - Saturday, 13th July 2024

            I decided that it would be a good idea to go to Liz's again today, with Lucas, to collect as much as possible to try to sell at Quenington Car Boot Sale tomorrow. When we got to the house, Liz's younger son was there, with his family, collecting his things, so it was a real joy to see them all - we hadn't seen their younger son, who was born in January. I went into the house while they were packing their things, and noticed that the lights weren't working. Steve had assumed that I'd turned the electricity off for some reason, so then helped me try to find the cause. They had to leave, so I enquired with the neighbors, and it was a widespread power cut, starting yesterday. Thankfully, after an hour or so, the power came back on! Then Lucas was brave enough to climb the loft ladder to peep into the loft - his first experience of such a thing.

Eventually, we packed the car with three huge suitcases full of stuff, plus several other bags and boxes - hardly a space left in the car - and set off to have lunch at The Bell on the Common again. As we were leaving, having had a delicious mac & cheese each, the oil warning light came on. After our experience last year and into February with oil problems, I was not best pleased, but drove home safely. The oil was a little low, but not sure why, and also the service light was on, when it's definitely not due for a service. Doesn't sound good. Anyway, a good evening with Lucas, keeping him up a little later than usual, as he slept for an hour on the way back to Quenington.
