Woke at 0845. Aki brought me tea. Got up around 1000 and porridged. Worked on finalising LPAs for father, with a view to posting them off to Leigh (Certificate Provider)...she can then take them round to dad at her leisure. Quiche salad lunch. We walked round to Nags Head Market…Aki wanted to suss out the taco store ahead of this evening’s Mexican themed Book Club meet. We wandered on into Morrison’s to look at fajita kits, but didn’t find anything suitable. Ended up buying dragon fruit, and custard apples at the stall on Holloway Road. Tried a jesters hat at the Fancy Dress shop…may suit Noggins in the panto, though it was rather too roomy for me…perhaps Sean has a bigger head…will have to check! Walked on down to Highbury and back home via Highbury Fields. Enjoyed the Irish stew for dinner. Aki left for Book Club…I watched Traitors, and then the Mercury Prize coverage from Newcastle. Aki back by 2215. Late bath and bed…
