An interesting day out

Today was interesting. Last Tuesday we'd had a phone call out of the blue from an old friend we hadn't seen for (we calculated) 14 years. She's actually an ex-girlfriend of G's during his student days but they stayed friends after they split up and we've kept in touch. As they live in Scotland, meetings were always infrequent but they used to come down to Wales every so often and we'd meet but then jobs had changed, families grew more demanding and we'd slipped into the "note in with the Christmas card" mode of keeping in touch.

Anyway, they were coming to North Wales again and wondered if we could meet? G suggested the Llanberis Slate Museum because the weather forecast was not very good and that would give us indoor things to do and stuff to look at as well as the opportunity for a little walk if the weather was good enough. I'll post more tomorrow, because there is more to write about, but now it's time to cook dinner...
