Saturday 6 March:

Morning spent fetching and reading the newspaper… and watching the cricket (which genuinely painful… with England 150+ runs behind on first innings and then being all out 135 and losing by an innings and 25 runs!).
Watched ‘The Ipcress File’ on telly in the afternoon (which was good, I thought) and then read some more of ‘Running’ book.
Other sport: Villa drew 0-0 at home to Wolves and Bears beat Worcester 23-24 with a last gasp try!
Evening telly: Mary Beard’s excellent ‘Roman Empire’ documentary and ‘Bloodlands’ (with a shocking ending… and still two episodes to go!).
