Nick is still in the running for Pop Idols – one more contestant was eliminated yesterday, but it was not Nick. The next elimination is on Monday. Last night we made a start to the backdrop for the Holiday Bible Club, which is running from 18th to 23rd June, putting together big sheets of paper, getting it up on the wall, and then outlining our picture from OHP. We started painting this afternoon, and made a big dent in about two hours, so it looks like we will easily finish that with not too much stress.
We had John and Cindy to dinner this evening. She brought a cremora tart for pudding, but she used a different recipe, and to her embarrassment it didn’t set. We’re one-for-one with flopped puddings now (my trifle didn’t set when we had dinner at their house!). The kids ate at their table, so the grown ups could have a decent conversation, and it really was nice. We chatted about all sorts of things and laughed a lot in between. Cindy had a tension headache, so after giving her two Comprals, I suggested we pop out to the Emporium where I had seen heating pads (the automatic type where it heats instantly, and then afterwards you reset it by boiling it) quite inexpensively. Unfortunately we got there at 8, just as they were closing, so no luck. We wandered about town a bit after that, looking at the clothes in Warrens, where I remarked that “die klere is lelik en duur”. Nice to talk in our ‘private language’!
