The Prince of Wales

is for sale I see. I have always thought that this looked to be a pub with potential. It has a small garden out the back which backs onto part of the common and it is quite a light and airy pub. Or well it could be.
They often have bands play in here on a Friday and a Saturday night. So I shall wait to see what happens to it.

School's out...

I know this by the number of children I have seen (and heard) out and about. Why are they all not at the Charlton Lido, it's warm enough if not sunny enough! No doubt they would rather be out kicking the bins over in the street which happened at some unearthly hour this morning. Oh joy. Maybe they will all join the summer kids klub at the Slade church which I assume is their attempt at being kool (see...) and not that they can't spell! I can't remember what I did in the summer holidays except that I played outside a lot and that the holidays really didn't seem to last for 5 or 6 weeks. I know we went on holiday for a week or two of those but that's still nearly a month of being at home that I just can't conjure up in my mind.
Ah to have the summer off now...

Hungry

I am starving today, all I can think about is what to have for dinner. Sadly a rummage around the Co-op didn't produce much inspiration so it's the slummy mummy option of a takeaway. We haven't been impressed with the local takeaways though so does anyone have any good ones they would like to share?

Slade Library

I just went over there and it is shut. Now I seem to remember something about the library being refurbished but I didn't realise it was all going to be closed. Where have all the books gone? Also there is still a Sure Start sign up on the Slade Hall advertising stay and play sessions on Tuesdays I think but I couldn't see anyone to chat to so we walked back home again.
Does anyone know what the story is, seeing as I can't get a good story at the moment!!
