Lovely Wednesday

 The day began full of mist; here is the level crossing, just pre-dawn, still dark. Then the neighbours left a huge box of wild mushrooms, beautiful...
 Toby hosted a dinner tonight for Leo and Roules (uncertain spelling there), Bob and me, Kat and Roland, Gracie and Jutta, so English, French, German and Dutch sentences were dancing across the table at any given moment. To Thai food with French additions. Delicious :)
 Since Kat and Roland are off to Isle de Brexit tomorrow and Toby and  Leo leave for Amsterdam before they get back, there was a certain amount of hilarious xmas gifting. Above Leo is receiving his toilet set in a suitable way and below Roland is looking anxious, as he may - he speaks no English and he's off to Dublin and then Wales tomorrow. And the rest. I warned him about the weather and the food. Could be why he is looking so concerned.
