Saturday 11 July:


Saturday is always a ‘no-walking day’ (to avoid people as far as possible!), so read in bed first thing.
Moira and I had morning coffee AND lunch AND supper in the garden today, which made a very nice change.
A non-event day really… drew a ‘virtual’ sketch of the roof area at St Nick’s Market and chose a location for my Leicester urban sketching get-together tomorrow. I misunderstood the arrangements for the day… it’s an exchange session, with Leicester urban sketchers ‘coming’ to Bristol and us ‘going’ to Leicester – but also linking should be interesting!
West Ham and Watford both won their games today – which effectively ensures Villa’s relegation. It’s the fourth day of the first Test Match in the England v West Indies series (England struggling somewhat)… the match is being played at Southampton and no spectators are allowed in to watch!
Finished the day by watching two excellent TV programmes: “This Beautiful Fantastic” (had a lot of similarities with ‘Amelie’) and “Britain’s Forgotten Slave Owners” (another David Olusoga programme).
Image: noticed these travel books on our bookshelves (obvious, in these coronavirus days, we’re “going nowhere fast”!).
