monday morning

Dashed out early to patisserie but failed in mission to get the sliced sourdough loaf. Happy to have unsliced, but my slices get progressively more uneven. Home for breakfast then out to Brighton for last-minute birthday shopping for K and a bit of a wander in and out of shops. Remarkably lucky with bus arrivals, not a given around here. Home in self-congratulatory mood as I didn't end up buying tons of extras for myself,  a regrettable habit of mine.  And, so far, that really is my day.
