Crumpet sitting

Tuesday 18th

Not much on today as I am crumpet sitting.

Tart

Em texted to say she had forgotten work phone so I walked over to Union Street and back – a fair old way past Gails that Crumpet loves because of all the crumbs on the floor – on way back had my first refusal – she sat and refused to move basically.

Had enough Crumpet?

Carla had lunch with a friend at Coal Drops so Crumpet and I went up there with her:

Carla and her little mate
Such a great place
The view from Barafina

Be rude not to have an Estrella so I did (two in fact).

Carla had a cheeky drink before lunch – a nice sparkling Cava

Then home (whilst Carla lunched) for a rest before my 2h marathon making a Bosh Vegan Lasagne – was hard work but Emily said it was worth it – I felt it needed much more Béchamel … next time. We then played ‘London Ticket to Ride’ – over complicated I feel but fun once we worked out what on earth it was about.

We smashed a bottle of the full fifteen with dinner – a lovely full bodied sparkling red that Emily found at a wine festival. She put it back in fridge like this:

The spoon in a sparkling wine is an urban myth – does absolutely nothing

At the end of day I was knackered – it is genuinely tough doing sweet FA.
