A lockdown kind of day...

Day 48

Today has been another very lazy Sunday with not much going on! Sophie just wanted to relax and I was happy to comply! I made banana porridge for breakfast, but this time the fruit was much riper so it was lovely and sweet! I have learned my lesson!

We had our face mask at lunchtime - this week it was a charcoal one so we both looked like we were in combat as the colour was like a greeny khaki! As usual, we caught an episode of A Place in the Sun - how lovely it would be to be somewhere sunny and warm at the moment!

Sophie and I went to see Mum in the afternoon and parked outside her window so we could wave and have a conversation on the phone. She looked very smart, and her hair was a beautiful brown colour, so that was reassuring for me.

We took the scenic route home, and Mill Lane was like the M25! Numerous cyclists, joggers and walkers were out enjoying the late afternoon air. It's been a bit of a dreary day today with not much sunshine, but I'm hoping this will improve next week.

Back home we played Scrabble and had a sneaky early Martini! Sophie said that the weekend had been a typical lockdown one - mooching about the house, talking to friends on Facetime, early drinking and playing board games!

Keith cooked dinner tonight - a delicious roast chicken with all the trimmings. We enjoyed the chicken but honestly couldn't taste much difference between the Beckworth one and a bird we usually buy in Tesco for slightly less money!
