Aftermath...

...of a lovely evening at Rose's.
We enjoyed a fine evening with our old friends Lis and Paco who live in Porto for most of the year, but also have a house in our area, left over from when we all worked at the same language school, back in the 80's and 90's!
After they headed home we stayed a little longer to synchronise our calendars as we all seem to be travelling to different places and at different times. Sometimes we end up in the same place (walking the South Downs way at the end of the summer) but mostly we are headed in different directions. 
In the picture Rose seems to puzzling over something in her schedule while Jan seems happily harmonious, holding her colourful diary. Jan was the driver so alcohol had nothing to do with her mood!
Earlier in the day I'd bottled my barley wine, while the rain poured down outside. It was a small brew, just under 10 litres, but the bottles I chose are small too so we ended up with 29 bottles. Barley wine is not a beer to quaff!
I think I set a new record for the number of steps I took, but not in a good way - only slightly over 1000!  I must do better today!!!
