Potted weekend update:

-First Saskatoon berries of the year. Delicious. Still many to ripen.
-Last Suzuki gig until September was on Saturday morning. I forgot my music and had to go back for it (though mstevens brought it part of the way), was an hour late. Embarrassed, but I got to the performance bit with the right music.
-Brunel Engine House tunnel tour thing didn't happen due to advanced organisational incompetence on their part. I'm afraid it might be terminal. Instead had a lovely meal in the Mayflower. A bit pricey, but seriously good food. I will be going back there again.
-met up with pfy and had pasta and icecream at Marine Ices. ( yay for other people feeding me )

-Today: morning greetings from the neighbour's cat being all the cute at me, lots of teaching. Saskatoon berries in Hendon Park not quite ready yet, oops. Pretty sure I've got Fat Hen (Chenopodium alba) sorted out in my head now, though.

Sleeeeepy.

Landlady is coming to get her post and a certificate on Tuesday afternoon. Tomorrow I will be mostly tidying, probably in 15-minute bursts. I did some of the living room this evening when I got in, though. You can nearly see the table.

Last Christmas, Mom gave ALL of us this emergency car thingy, which entails 1] flashlight, 2] hammer with which to break windows, and 3] knife with which to cut seatbelts.

A friend of mine just had her life saved by the seatbelt-cutting bit of this. If you drive and you don't keep something like this in your glove compartment, please change that. If you're in an accident you may need to be able to get out of your car in a hurry.
