Dawn walking as usual (and the weather was very much like
early morning yesterday – broken cloud). As I set out of the house, I
immediately came across fox with a bird(?) in its mouth walking towards me –
before turning tail and running back to the end of the street. After last
week’s sparrowhawk encounter, the top end of Mount Pleasant Terrace is clearly
some sort of wildlife reserve!
Moira and I had morning coffee in the garden as the day
brightened.
I’d ordered a book from StorySmith and actually went to the
shop to collect it (duly face-masked)!
We had our ‘regular’ fortnightly Asda delivery – which is
always good to receive.
Finished a marina boat sketch… still feel reluctant to sit
outside and sketch insitu, which is a little sad.
Had a nice longish telephone call from Tom and we’ve
provisionally agreed to get together next week(?) – perhaps at Ashton Court –
for a social-distanced chat which will be very welcome.
Stu and Rosa came round to deliver stuff to Ruth’s studio and
I chatted to Rosa on the stairs (while Moira+Stu talked in the garden about M
working towards giving up dealing with Stu’s accounts – perhaps at the end of
the financial year?). Rosa, as ever, was very amusing… and very excited at the
prospect of becoming 11 tomorrow!
Read another chunk of Bernardine Evaristo’s really excellent
book in the afternoon.
Put washing out on the line in the sunshine… but didn’t
notice the rain at the end of the afternoon! Doh!
Watched another heat of ‘Landscape Artist of the Year 2019’…
as you do.

Great Britain’s return to Bristol (great shame that coronavirus has hugely dented its plans).
