Thursday 11 June:

Weather forecast for today wasn’t good… and that’s how it turned out.
I didn’t go for a dawn walk – although that wasn’t due to the poor weather (I actually like walking in the rain if I’m dressed appropriately) – I just wanted to carry on working on Megan/Adam’s drawing. It’s quite big (1070x400mm), so takes up a lot of space! Well, I managed to complete a ‘first bash’ by mid-afternoon and emailed some quick (pretty awful) photographs off to Alan for some initial feedback (my first attempt was returned ‘undeliverable’!). I’m really not quite sure what Megan’s expecting, so I’m fully prepared to have another bash in due course (Adam’s birthday’s not until October).
I finished my Wodehouse book over breakfast and am about to start our bookgroup’s latest book - short (ghost) stories… so, going from what it written on the book’s cover, I might decide to only read it during the day – and not just before I settle down to sleep!
The Colston statue has duly been ‘rescued’ from the harbour by the Council (in the small hours, apparently) and taken away for eventual re-location in a local museum.
We got an online supermarket delivery at lunchtime, which was good (our stocks were fairly low – no bread, no savoury biscuits etc).
Hannah emailed us a video (put together by ‘HUF lockdown productions’!) – ‘An Interview With An Alien’… which, as you might imagine, is quite funny!
