Aki up and away early for a session on the River Lea. Lazy day reading the book we got for Kath for Xmas...Hamnet...it’s not as good as I expected...certainly doesn’t come close to Ms Mantel's evocation of the period. Walked to the post box and back. Made some pasta this evening and FaceTimed Kath...she can meet us at Woolley Edge service station on Boxing Day. Watched the 1968 film version of The Heart is a Lonely Hunter. A neutered version of the book...and therefore a rather unsatisfying experience. Set in a rather affluent mid 1960s rather than the dilapidated late thirties of the novel...
