Wednesday 17 March:

No walk due to Bloke’s Prayer. Some good stuff about today’s BP, but a couple of people are keen to get more ‘blokes’ to join us – and, although I understand the sentiment, I really don’t want our numbers to grow. I enjoy the intimacy/’anamcara’ sense… but who knows?
I also ‘discovered’ a rather lovely ‘One Second Every day’ video by Hannah John – which covers the past 12 months… I suspect it’ll become a wonderful reminder of ‘Covid Year’ at some time in the future.
Usual morning coffee with Moira – reflecting on the fact that it’s exactly a year ago today that we last had Iris+Rosa here after school for tea/supper (and posted a reflective blog on ‘onedaylikethis’).
Checked out some possible Singapore sketching location in advance of Sunday’s USk get-together.
At Ru’s suggestion, I watched ‘Britt-Marie Was Here’ 2019 Swedish film (about a 63 year-old woman who becomes a village football coach)… very enjoyable and heart-warming.
Read a little more of my ‘Italian Lemons’ book.

Later on, we had another Bloke’s Prayer gathering – this time to discuss Dru’s time on Mount Athos and Dave’s time in Albania.
