Hot and humid

Sophie didn't go to the gym this morning as she had a bad headache. Worryingly, they seem to be coming back, which is disappointing as I thought we had fixed the problem.

I had another busy shift at work, but it was a peasant day and not as frantic as Wednesday, apparently, when Sara was tearing her hair out! It's been hot and humid today, and quite unpleasant, but the weather is due to break on Saturday when we have weather warnings out for thunderstorms. Let's hope it clears the air a bit!

Keith went to the pub this evening, while Sophie and I opened a bottle of Marques de Caceres white Rioja and settled down to watch Murder on the Orient Express, starring Kenneth Branagh and Johnny Depp. Both Sophie and I had read the book on holiday and enjoyed it, but the film was quite a bit different, with characters re-named and even given alternative nationalities! Why? It spoiled it a bit for us! The highlight of the evening was the snacks Sophie bought in Waitrose on her way home: a delicious layered dip and crunchy crisps! Yum!

Dinner tonight was chicken escalopes with potato wedges, so nice and easy. We also realised it was the First Night of the Proms! We're going in September!
