There was a light smattering of rain but I had a brolly with me so I didn't get wet. Actually quite warm out today, or maybe that was due to the walking.
Google maps says 2.5 miles but I can see from the track that it didn't pick up the whole route. Fitbit says 6,778 steps so far today and that's approx 3.6 miles. My legs feel like they've done nearer 3 miles.
For completeness: yesterday's third film, not yet recorded here, was a rewatch of World Trade Center (2006)
And the review is where?
Tea: Heinz potato and leek soup, the last remnants of Morrisons multiseed bread (stale), more rice pud (very nice), a bramble jelly sandwich on Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed bread (even staler), 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea and a corner yog thing (yellow).
Oh, and my leg is complaining again, in a novel way.
After that I was in need of something that didn't make me want to throw my eyes and ears in a skip, so I turned to World Trade Center (2006) - IMDb, the true story of two NY Port Authority cops (why does America have so many different police forces for the most arcane jurisdictions?) who were trapped under a skyscraper's worth of debris when WTC2 collapsed, then suffered the further misfortune of WTC1 collapsing on top of that, and then WTC7 on top of that, but were eventually rescued, being the eighteenth and nineteenth of just twenty people rescued alive after the world came crashing down. Excellent stuff, and at least Oliver Stone managed not to drag any of his conspiracy theories into this one
The innards of the pie have commenced their slow cooking. The assembly into pie form will take place tomorrow, I think.
For dinner, therefore, I have defrosted and reheated some lamb meatballs in tomato sauce and bulgar wheat I'd made in April.
The evening's entertainment has yet to be decided. I'm not in the mood for anything too intellectual but I may have a go at finishing the final book in the rather poor Southern Reach trilogy that I've been plodding my way through.
EDIT
Realised I have a few episodes of Chasing the Moon downloaded to iPlayer and expiring soon so I'm watching that while I eat me dinner
