Have you seen the wonderful film “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” where the young Indian hotel,owner, forever an optimist, says “It will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, it’s not the end!”. Well that is my catch phrase for today having spent half the night worrying about an extraordinary amount of work a contractor had landed me with to be done by Sunday. Woke up in a tizz, Zoomed with my co-worker who said “well, we’re not going to do it like that !”. So we didn’t. We took a much easier route which will give the same if not better results and didn’t give them the choice - ha ha ! So now I’m free to meet my best friend from the US who will be here at the weekend ( a non drinker I hasten to add). I just made an aubergine lasagne to celebrate !

Yes, I used to watch "The Best Marigold Hotel" on the ABC here Ican. I really liked it.

Prophetic words of wisdom proven to be correct one more time. Have a great time with your friend, and congrats on 18 magnificent days.

Maybe I got it muddled? There was a series here, set in India of same name? ABC TV. Whatever the case, they are sage words, and have always encouraged me to resist alcohol whenever things not going my way.

Onwards.

It’s not a series (at least it wasn’t here). It’s a film and then a sequel starring, amongst others, the amazing Judi Dench ! But yes, wise words !
