Lunch earlier was a sausage and bacon baguette (red sauce) - well, half of one, as a whole one seemed a tad excessive, and now I have the other half for another day

Preparation of this was slightly delayed as the baguette was one of those you reheat at home, and furthermore was starting from frozen. I popped it in the oven in plenty of time, but somehow managed to accidentally turn on the oven's child lock a few minutes later, which disabled it when it was still only slightly warm. Once I realised what had happened, I had to go and check the manual to find out how to turn the lock off again

So the sausages and bacon got to rest for a few minutes while the baguette was heated up on the second attempt

Loony lady 3 earlier. Got back to her place and she found she'd left her walking stick in the cafe. Said I'd collect it for her when I went on me walk tomorrow but she insisted we drive all the way back! She drives me nuts!

Mood improved by call in at a local art exhibition where I know a few of the artists. Lovely lady there who's a local burlesque performer. Cor! Chewy she is.

Close shave earlier, had to brake when a child shot right out across the road on a bike. Good job I'd just pulled out of the parking spot and was only doing about 10mph or he could have been killed.

Tea has been brought from the south Indian place past the park. I had one of their curries that I hadn't tried before and it was very nice indeed, albeit very hot

Much dismay among the apes today, for the programme schedulers have cut the wildlife programming back to a mere three hours around teatime

But I found out about the orangutan documentary on Netflix, so I put that on for them this evening

Later, I finished reading Ossian's Ride, which was quite entertaining all in all. And then, as it's in a volume of three Fred Hoyle novels, it was straight on to October the First is Too Late, in which I've just go to the point where it turns weird

Goodnight all
