Grandad gets beat
Dear "Tom"
Grandad gets beat
Sad to say, Grandad got beat in his last two races by this very fast bloke who quite rightly took the age group prize in my age group at the Veterans Track League, but only by two points (I was leading by two points at the start of the meet. Nevr mind, our club won the league for the third year in a row and our captain collected the trophy at the end.
Lots of things to do tonight before I go away tomorrow. Nana Ann has told me there's one thing I really must do, but I just haven't had time to do it so I've had to tellher it's practically finished. But at least I've made my sandwiches for tomorrow and put them in the firdge. I must remember to take them with me, or they'll still be there when I get back AND I'll have to buy sandwiches on my travels which I don't like doing (unless fresh made on the pot) because made-up sandwiches do have a lot of salt in them.
The other thing to do is to put everything out for the morning so I don't forget anything. At least I don't have to remeber to bring my passport (the Isle of Wight is part of Great Britain) although I never did forget it once on my many travels to Europe the alst two years (now no more). Appararently the people on the Isle of Wight don't like England being called the mainland. They say Britain is an island istelf, so they call England "North Island." And why not indeed!
The other thing I have to do is to make sure I get up in time and don't get caught in the tarffic on my way to the station. Then I have to have time to get my tickets from the "Fast Ticket" machine which is great as long as you have the right creit card and your reference numbers.
Must dash
Love from
Grandad Kit and Nana Ann
