Woke around 0745. Got up and made tea. Got back into bed. Rose to porridge. Pottered about finishing my packing. Wandered round to the North Library to return a book, then picked up my altered trousers from the dry cleaners. Transferred stuff to the car boot then we had lunch. Said our farewells and I drove south…decided to go via the A23 and Tower Bridge…mistake. Very slow going…it ended up adding over an hour to my journey. Hit Brighton about 1630…stopped off at Dyke Park to suss out the cafe…they do panini and burgers etc…so handy in an emergency. Drove into to Colin and Trudi at Modena Road and transferred some of my belongings to the upstairs bedroom. Very comfy. We had a little catch up in the back garden, which is looking beautiful. Then bussed into town for dinner at Latinoamericano…Argentinian steak house. I had the beef fillet…delicious, as was the rice pudding with cinnamon. I paid the bill in lieu of ‘rent’ to my hosts. Back at Modena Road, we caught the second half of the England v Italy semifinal…England looked to be heading out but the subs came on for the last ten minutes and turned the game…astonishing!
