We had a staff meeting this morning sitting in a sunny room eating cakes and drinking coffee, tea and chocolate while discussing various matters including the restructuring of the museum service; all agreed that them upstairs are not always very nice with their cost cutting measure of foisting early retirement upon an assortment of senior staff, but were relieved that our jobs are untouched by the changes.
In the afternoon we had a walk round the park in the sunshine going over the summer workshops, and being instructed in plant and bug identification by two of the rangers (one of them Hilary's son Richard).
Here are some of my colleagues hard at work.
Added on Thursday: I have just realised that they are arranged in exact age order from front to back and left to right. How very odd! They are Linda, Hilary, Ann, Rachel, Sarah, Lauren, Kristan: missing are Dianne, Sharon, Margaret and myself who would fit in order from just ahead of Linda to just after Ann.
Below - especially for Liz - are some pictures of the bluebells at Normanby
It's tough old life!

Yes, eating cakes and drinking tea, coffee, or chocolate in addition to a stroll in wonderland can be a tough day's work. lol
