In the shade

Invited for lunch by a friend's mother we helped (a little) to obtain British citizenship. She asked me to suggest somewhere. Initially booked a pub we like in Ashley Cross. then decided to go to the Botanist.

Had a lovely couple of hours with her. Food was perfectly good. Really enjoyed.

Walk back home. Been lying with aching feet up since about 4 pm. Was very hot but tolerable away from the full sun.

1000s of youngsters poured down the main road to the beach today. I hear it's was busy, and I've just seen there's been an assault on a policeman.P tried to break up a fight by the Pier. (breaking news - no idea if that's accurate or not)
