We went to Mama Rosa's last night to eat, they are already decorated for the Christmas season.

I slept pretty well again and woke to a very frosty morning.

I took this from the deck rather than moving the mesh shield! Was a bit achy today so have stayed in but made a start with the cutting out for the ottoman as I had made the patterns yesterday.

Pinned and sewed the sides and tried them for size, so far so good!

It is very heavy material and I struggle a bit with the whole thing,, especially the corners!

A great machine Pat, so thank you for letting me use it. I finished it off and did the stapling underneath, I had managed to remove the base material without too much damage. The the ottoman was covered and ready to go back into the lounge.

It's return met with approval from the family!

Lee and Patty asked me if I had brought my swimming costume with me, I hadn't because I knew the pool wouldn't be in use. But they said the hot tub out on the deck was up and running. So tee shirt and pants it was and I went out there this afternoon. I went out alone so took a selfie!!

And a couple of views from the tub, I stayed out for getting on for an hour I think, although the breeze was cold I was so low that it didn't really bother me.

We have had a take away this evening and I have played a couple of games with Kate, I think it will be early nights all round now as it is a normal day tomorrow for the familu.
