Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is having a great weekend
I had a great day yesterday, but a tiring one
We have been blessed with a good summer, and the weather was fantastic yesterday. I called in at Charlie's for a coffee and avocado on toast, then went into town. I was supposed to be meeting Wolfie for a coffee, but his missus had broken a nail or something, so there was a family emergency
As it turned out, the place we had intended to meet was closed, so I ended up walking a fair distance to another coffee shop. I was some distance from the city centre, down by the river, and after having my coffee, I was walking down a small, obscure cobbled street, when I saw a familiar face coming towards me. It was Rashid, Hisham's brother, but he lives in Sicily! He was with his son, his wife, and some other friends, and it turned out they had come over for a wedding. None of them speaks much English, so I never got to the bottom of why they were walking down that obscure street, but I ended up giving them a full tour of the city. Four hours later, I was tired out, and due to meet a group of other friends for dinner. After checking it was OK with my friends, I invited the Sicilians. The only sticking point was that we were meeting in an Italian restaurant, but they didn't mind, and enjoyed meeting my friends. Despite the warm atmosphere, we separated early, and I headed home to the sofa! 
I was thinking what to carry today. Didn't have to think long!
Have a great day Guardians, light housework and lollygaggin' for me!
