Monday 9th June 2025

Aki up with alarm at 0700 to ready herself for a doctor’s appointment. I got up around 0800 and made tea before she cycled off to Euston. Read some Dickens and did some Italian lessons on Duolingo before rising to porridge. Walked to Highbury Fields and bought a coffee from the Dusty Knuckle van…sat and drank at a street table and bench on the cycle way. Walked home via Waitrose. Bought ingredients to make dinner. Made the chicken, leek and cider sauce ahead of time, then made the lemon surprise puddings. Watched some tennis from Queen’s Club. Aki and Miho turned up around 1715. Miho is on a cultural visit…she’s already been to the Royal Ballet, twice, and has tickets for the opera. I cooked the chicken pie, served with vegetables…seemed to go down well. We had the lemon surprise puddings with lemon sorbet…very nice. Sat and chatted until Miho decided it was time to get a taxi back to her hotel in Piccadilly. Aki washed up before bath and bed…
