Plans and so forth

Plans take various forms, there are plans of things you want to do with your life, there are evil schemes and plots and things which most of us would never actually carry out but it's often nice to fantasise about. There are the bonkers plans which start life as a flippant suggestion and end up being a really good idea... like a new year's BBQ for example, Laura! 


So today I am supposed to be typing up the plan for the term of Brownies, planning my route to college tomorrow, tidying my house and generally being virtuous. Instead... I am watching Jane Eyre, in my pjs while drinking tea and eating bara brith. Naughty naughty. 


Yesterday I went to the St Fagans Food Festival and had a fun walk around attempting to speak Welsh (badly). We decided it was fine to point at people and saying the colour of their tops is fine (blue - glas, etc) as long as we didn't point at anyone in red. Since the Welsh for red is Coch, pronounced with a hard c sound at the end, as they may not know we were speaking Welsh and therefore might think we were calling them something rude, or casting aspersions on their character! 


I bought fudge, bara brith, and a bottle of elderflower cordial, and a card which says "Gan Bwyll A Daliwch Ati" - Keep Calm and Carry On. Marvellous. 


Plans for the week then: College tomorrow, Craft club tomorrow evening. Brownies on Tuesday, Self-Help Group on Thursday, college on Friday and then going to see my mother for her birthday which is on Friday, during this visit I will also see my oldest friend Charlotte and visit her new house! 


A quotation I like at the moment: 


When asked how she should avoid going to hell like other wicked children, Jane Eyre replies: 
"I must keep in good health, and not die."
