Not many turned up to the 'Cream-Cake Social' yesterday evening, so I've a stock of unsold cream cakes
in my room. Ate a few, but don't know what to do with the rest. I think I'll freeze them, and bring
them out at the next event - I don't think anyone will notice.

Today, we had a visit from the Police. It seems Mr and Mrs Cobstanding have been growing marijuana
in their spare room, with seeds they brought back from Amsterdam. They have been using it to make
up a herbal drink, which actually they have given me bottles of, and which I always found quite
palatable, and a good way to relax. Anyway, it seems that what they are doing is illegal, even though
they have not smoked any. The Police aren't going to prosecute, but they have given them an ASBO
and told them not to do it again. Some of their regular visitors from the Young Offenders
Hostel will be disappointed, as I gather that they always enjoyed a glass or two of the drink.

Today's coach trip to see Mama Mia in London was overall a great success. Everyone was very
appreciative of the driver, so we had a collection for him. In total he got £2.65, which I
thought he would be pleased with - it just shows you can't please everyone, whatever you do.
The only problem with the trip is that when we got back, we realised Mrs Dogwhittle was missing.
Still, she is a sprightly 90 year old, so I'm sure she will turn up sooner or later.

Today's Village Meeting was fairly routine, but we did have an interesting speaker, Mr Sconepole,
whose subject was 'arachnids'. Not everyone had realised this would be about spiders, and not everyone
was pleased when he brought out a live tarantula and some poisonous Australian spiders.
Mrs Jodpurdy was brave enough to handle one of these! So, overall it was judged as a good evening.
