Saturday 6th May 2023

Aki woke up a couple of times during the night with a coughing fit. Got up around 0900 and made her a mug of hot lemon and honey. Cooked breakfast...made bubble and squeak, which we ate with salad and poached eggs. Got hooked on watching the Coronation of King Charles III. They certainly know how to put on a show! The ancient ritual of the anointing, and the presentation of various intriguing knick-knacks, rings, orbs, rods and sceptres, all adorned with historical symbolism, was fascinating. Watched the procession back down The mall, and the fly past by the Red Arrows in the rain. Aki made a carrot soup, which we had for late lunch. I cooked a mushroom and anchovy pasta sauce for dinner. Watched Penelope Cruz in "Official Competition", an enjoyable satire taking aim at the film industry...stunning cinematography...pin-sharp and beautifully lit.
