Wednesday 4th June 2025

Aki up with alarm at 0700 to ready herself for Rowing Club. I made tea and climbed back into bed. Walked round to the GP surgery for a 1000 appointment with yet another young doctor…they seem to change at a furious rate! Discussed pain management for my bad hernia repair…opted to start on paracetamol and see how it goes. Walked home, bumping into Lynne on the street…she’d locked herself out again. Read some Dickens. Rehearsed a bit. Aki lunched at the Rowing Club…I lunched on baked ricotta and rhubarb compote. Aki returned via Waitrose. We listened to the tennis from Roland Garros. Early dinner…I cooked mushrooms and chicken in a creamy sauce which we are with tagliatelle. I drove off to rehearsal in Stoke Newington. We rehearsed the crew and the Furies getting the ship ready to sail…it involves me singing a shanty, but I couldn’t be heard above the din as the crew manhandled several barrels as part of the choreography. I’m going to need a mic! Had hoped to rehearse the tunes we planned to do at the Folk Club tomorrow night, but ran out of time. Drove home for bath and bed…
