Finally...

Should have been a quiet morning but ended up embroiled in more of the tricky messy stuff. Really felt for J.
Last graduation in the afternoon....all went well but very pleased to have finished! Chat to JS afterwards....more difficult stuff unfortunately but he seemed in good spirits regardless.
Met up with S and we headed out to the deepest countryside for dinner here https://www.the-free-company.com/about/
We were the only ones not part of a private party but they were all very jolly and friendly and the food was nice. Lovely setting and decorations but on the chilly side, and we came home smelling of woodsmoke! Quite the adventure....
