    I took an executive decision to pop over to both M&S and Sainsbury's to beat at least some of the lunchtime rush. Didn't quite get there in time, but I think I got all I wanted to get

    I was the only masked person in both places

    And once home, lunch was a couple of bits of Southern not-fried chicken I took out of the freezer last night

    The disabled fox was around just before I went out - I got to see it quite close from ground level for a few moments before it went off sniffing through the hedgerow as I was going down to the car

      1 hour til a taxi arrives and takes me to the airport and from there Paris (via Amsterdam).

      merely at clientco for the entertainment

        I too popped out to the shop! I went to pick up some comestibles with which to feed HWMBO for breakfast. The forecast but non-existent rain decided to appear as I stepped out. It was only a tiny smattering, barely worthy of note.

        Lunch was from Kineya Mugimaru - where I picked up some soup for immediate consumption and a rice dish for later.

          I popped out again, this time round to the chemist. I've got no idea what's going on over at the health centre, but for some reason somebody there had ordered my repeat prescription on my behalf over a week ago. This was why I couldn't order them myself when I went on the website. I phoned the surgery who explained that yes, the medication had indeed been ordered and should be at the chemist's, but couldn't explain why on earth they'd done that

            I am so bored this afternoon I cleaned the bathroom.

            Whilst I am very happy with all the shiny data received that should help me do the data mapping exercise I've been struggling with, I am just not in the right frame of mind to go through it all.

              Lot of it about. I invented a very straightforward but useful task that would have been quite interesting, but I couldn't summon up any enthusiasm for it. Just dithered all afternoon, really

              There's occasional light showers going on here, interspersed with sunshine

              For reasons that escape me, there was a broken egg on the lawn this morning. Now there's a broken eggshell, the magpies having discovered and devoured the contents before the pigeons came across it

                On plane 1 with flying visit to lounge (rather nice sweet and sour chicken).

                now sat in business class because the plane is full and I’m still one of the most frequent flyers on the plane so get the upgrade.

                edit although I’ve just been told there are no business class meals on board due to the last second nature of the upgrade (got to ask who has been added to this flight so late on).

                    Result not too bad - there were only 3 200ml bottles of Cava on board and I had 2 of them

                      Tea: rack of ribs (with the honey-based BBQ sauce) and chips. Very nice
