Alarm at 0830. Got up and made tea. Porridged at the dining table. Sore throat not as bad this morning, but voice has almost vanished. Joined Savills' Teams Meeting at 1000...sub-contractor's refresher session. Lunch. Spent half a hour on the throne…things not right down there! Walked to Holloway Road tube station and took a train to Covent Garden. Rocked up at the Garden Cinema in good time and took our £5 seats in Screen Two to watch The Outrun…it’s almost a one woman show, with Saorise Roman giving a stunning performance as a young alcoholic who leaves Hackney to return home to Orkney to turn her life around…very intense, and oddly moving. Descended Holborn tube station for the journey home, coming up at Holloway Road to be greeted by crowds of Arsenal football supporters…they take on PSG tonight. Aki cooked teriyaki salmon for dinner, with rice and miso soup. Nowt much on telly, so sat about reading Farrell.
