Bloke’s Prayer, so no early morning walk.
All fine (Robin told us about his Friday walk from home to Portishead, then Clevedon, and then back home!).
Drafted out a second Durham sketch in preparation for Sunday’s urban sketching.
Moira and I had our usual morning coffee, but then decided to take a thermos down to Bathurst Basin for another mug of coffee (the sun was shining!)… which we did… and it was very nice and good that M was able to walk there and back without too much difficulty.
In the afternoon, I watched a documentary on Jack Charlton on telly (impressive, quite inspiring… and sad).
Ru worked in her studio in the afternoon and Iris popped in briefly after school (so the two of them could try and sort out some fabric, I think, for her Duke of Edinburgh involvement)(Ru very frustrated with Iris who seems to have been chivvied every step of the way on something that she, Iris, wanted to do… it’s not cheap – it’s already cost Ru £200!).
Was devastated to learn that Nikki Ingram had died… she was rushed into hospital with a dissection of the aorta at the beginning of February (and they also found a large aneurism)… she was due to have an operation on 3 March. I last messaged her on 9 March to find out she was… but never had a reply (and feared the worst). Online funeral on Friday.
Another evening zoom – this time with Jennie.
