Today is Corpus Christi. In Mazo, they’ve decorated the streets with the most beautiful archways and flower carpets, as they do every year. As soon as I’d dropped my son off at school, I went to Mazo and started taking photos. Half an hour later, Helen and Theresa joined me, and we took more photos before stopping for coffee. I’ll be putting up a page of photos on my web site as soon as I get time.

And this afternoon my friend Farida finally got the phone call to go into hospital for her ear operation. So I’ve got a daughter for a while. Farida’s daughter, Marian, is staying the night.
