Woke around 0800 after a good night's sleep. Got up and made tea. Did some exercises...my back hurting a bit after yesterday's car journey. Aki got up and picked tomatoes out front before doing a little work at the computer. I cooked breakfast. Drove over to Stamford Hill and parked up…walked down to the river and along the towpath to the Rowing Club. They were holding a regatta. Caught up with a few club members, and walked the length of the course. I’ve never found it a particularly invigorating spectacle, but I enjoyed an ice cream. We headed for Waitrose in Holloway to do a shop before they closed. Cooked a roast chicken dinner. Nowt on telly. Early bath and bed…
