Making plans

Sophie felt a little better this morning but didn't go to the gym. We sat and had a coffee and watched an episode of Help! We Bought A Village! and we both marvelled again at why people buy derelict wrecks and try and do them up! I have to admire them!

Work passed quickly again and when I got home I talked to Keith about an email I'd received from a restaurant in Puerto Pollenca. I'd contacted Stay about Christmas lunch but they were already full on the later sitting (3pm) and wanted full payment - 60e each - by the 1st of December. We agreed that 12.30pm was too early to eat as we'd feel we had to be out by 2.30pm. It's far too late to book something when we arrive on the 23rd, so I'll look for something else or we'll resign ourselves to cooking on Christmas Day. It won't be turkey though! However, there are other places to visit on the island and I'd even be prepared to drive to Palma if necessary! I'm sure we will work something out!

Sophie didn't feel like cooking our chicken stir-fry tonight and was still sad from her break-up with Vikesh, so we postponed it until Thursday. She's going to see her friend Laura tomorrow, which I think will do her good.

We watched an interesting documentary this evening on two houses during the Second World War - one in Marylebone and one in Berlin. As we love both places, it was very interesting but sad at the same time. It seems mad that this time in three weeks we'll be in Berlin again!
