Quietish Week - Sunday August 16th 2026

Went into RSAC again on Monday to finish tidying up. Sent an thank you email to performers and volunteers. Cycled out to Charter Alley with Kelvin on Tuesday. Finished updating the HCTS documentation on Wednesday and put it to bed. There was a partial eclipse in the evening. Glasses were hard to come by. You were supposed to be able to see it using a colander as a sort of pin hole camera but that didn't seem to work. We had some glasses from the 1999 one but they were no longer meant to be safe. Used them anyway and it was OK. Derek down the street took this.
We were walking down to The Retreat to do the quiz when the coverage reached it's peak (19:12). It didn't go dark like 1999 but it did get darker. Came second in the quiz. Went swimming on Thursday morning. Madeline's sunflower is now fully blooming. We got woken up in the middle of the night by an owl.
A person from John Lewis came round on Friday morning to discuss the new kitchen. Got a severe government alert on our phones in the evening.
Got mine twice.
Went to see Reading v Luton on Saturday with Ralph. It was a 12 30 kick off. We started brightly but then conceded after about 5mins. Jack Marriot then scored a hattrick to make it 3 1 at half time, however we lost 4 3, the last goal being scored in the 96th minute. Went to Mandies in the evening for a little soiree. Got stung by a wasp. Only the second time that I can remember. Lazy day Sunday.
