We arranged yesterday that I’d go to Matt’s early and phone him to wake him up if necessary. He forgot this plan so was pretty annoyed when he answered the phone half asleep. Luckily I’d bought doughnuts to redeem myself.

We got absolutely soaked to the skin walking into town and then both had to endure long bus journeys in our wet clothes - him to his Ma’s and me to Gillian’s. She leant me a nightie and a dressing gown and sat me under a pile of blankets while my clothes dried on her radiators.

Back to the Perry’s in the evening for a curry and a movie.
