Friday 11th July 2025

Woke around 0730. Aki got up to ready herself for rowing club…I rose about half-an-hour later. Going to be another hot day in London Town! Porridged. Emptied the car boot then drove to Colindale to stick my car in for MOT at the VW garage. Walked to Burnt Oak station via Starbucks and found a bench with some shade beneath a bush in Montrose Park. Got off the train at Camden Town and popped into GuitarGuitar to buy a plectra box, then took a No.253 bus home. Aki back in time for lunch…I slung a chicken salad together. Watched Fritz take on Alcaraz. Headed back to Colindale via bus and tube train…the No29 I caught broke down halfway up Camden Road! Fortunately there was one behind it! Walked from Colindale station to the VW service centre and picked up my Golf…it had passed its MOT, and they’d given it a wash. Drove home listening to the Sinner v Djokovic game…no contest…the auld fella’s time is up! Got home in time to see Sinner serving for the match. Aki headed off to meet rowing pals in Walthamstow…one of their number professes to be an artist and is holding a viewing this evening. I warmed up a fish curry and dal for dinner. Practised the new song I’ve been handed for the Brighton run, and went through some of the other tunes.
