I'm in Truro now, six o'clock, waiting for my oldest granddaughter. I'm in my daughter's house but she's not here either. There is no Wi-Fi here. I would like to go home, but I can't abandon my younger granddaughter and the little grandson. I'd like to post my blog. That must wait. In the meantime I must find a lesson. Which lesson? What was the last one? I can't read it without Wi-Fi. That must wait. The children can play. I will read “Gweles”. There's a new edition for Summer. Nine o'clock and I'm home again, problems solved.
