Alarm at 0730...relatively decent night's sleep for a change. Got up and showered before descending to porridge and put together a couple of meals for the day ahead. Drove in to Basford for a 0930 start...knackered...need a holiday! We worked bits and pieces ahead of an afternoon run in front of Therese Heskins, the AD, and various back room staff. It all felt rather under-powered...I was certainly exhausted, and my performance therefore felt a bit marked. Got through it though, and we broke at 1700. I drove back to Bakewell Street and microwaved some cheesey beans on toast for dinner, then drove to Richmond Street and parked the car, permitting me a shorter walk to the rail station than that I embarked upon a couple of weeks ago. Caught the 1853 to Euston, and then took a No.91 bus to Holloway, getting home around 2100. Caught up with Aki before soaking in a hot bath...and bed!
