The temperature has dropped and there have even been a few showers, but the hot spell of the last week has pushed us over the boundary into summer. The hedges and trees are thick with greenery and there is a summer feel to the air. It is now the beginning of the extended holiday weekend for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, which gives me five days off work. Except that I have volunteered to supervise an SQA exam tomorrow. I will not be the invigilator; I will be there to make sure that the pupil turns up and check that they are coping ok.
Last night I was at Book Club at Rosemary's. The book was "The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox" and it was a really fun, relaxed evening. We all had a good laugh and ended up staying very late, so I was tired all of today. After school I gave Davie a lift over to "Stubo's" house where he was meeting up with his old school friends. Today was David's last day at his job at the stables because his induction day at his new school will be next Wednesday. I feel quite excited about this and I think that he's looking forward to it. He took in some boxes of biscuits for his colleagues. When he started there he didn't like horses much but he has grown to be fond of them and has learned a lot. We have enjoyed his stories about all the ponies including Rory the Ugliest Pony, which I think would be a good title for a children's book!
