Safer Socialising

Met Ermelinda and Cecílio in Reguengos de Monsaraz tonight for a drink in the main square, after we'd been grocery shopping. Mourão now has 26 cases, so felt safer not to have a meal together, and to meet elsewhere. Both of us enjoyed playing with photography while we waited. The cinema is huge, wish it still functioned, but even before the pandemic, was quite rare; we saw "La La Land" there.

Finished The Guest Cat, by Takashi Hiraide - if you fancy a gentle, poetic musing on the effect of a cat on a household, this is it.

Gratefuls:
- managing to send off a whole new application for both our driving licenses, though it took me the entire morning; we've basically given up on the old one 
- standing in Lidl carpark, watching the sun set, red, on one side, and the moon rise, golden, on the other
- all twenty of our new trees currently being watered while I'm on my laptop, by drip irrigation; the pipes aren't all buried yet, nor on a timer, but pretty good
