Aki up early so she could go rowing. I headed out west to Earls Court, then on to Mitcham and Croydon, before doubling back to a large estate in Tulse Hill...I'm sure it's where Wallace and Gerardine lived in the 1980s, and where I used to crash after a night out with them in Brixton. Gerardine would serve up amazing Irish fry ups the following morning...soda bread and colcannon! Managed to find facilities at Sainsbury's in Merton, where I also bought some lunch items. My enjoyment of Radio 6Music was interrupted just after midday by a BBC announcer with the news that Prince Phillip had passed away at the age of 99. The story took up the rest of the day's radio output...and even knocked MasterChef off the scheduling this evening! We ate dinner then joined the Pandemic Players zoom meeting for a reading of an American one-act play called "Trifles"...it was excellent. A finely honed piece, a call to the sisterhood to link arms in the face of the condescending patriarchy, but beautifully, almost poetically, rendered. Avoided the TV for the remainder of the evening...bath and bed.
