More work, and dinner with Dawn

Up and after breakfast, worked on doing concepts for the French agency till one o'clock. All about Lyme disease in dogs, so I had to put myself in the shoes of someone who loves dogs. Feeling sluggish and with a general disinclination to do anything. Lorraine and I discussed going shopping, till Lorraine went shopping and I felt asleep for an hour on the sofa.

In the evening Lorraine drove us off to Dawn's house in Steyning, we'd not seen her for ages. She has broken her elbow having stumbled on the scree on Ben Nevis, while walking there with her sisters and nieces. Then she had to be helicoptered off the mountain. Luckily there had been mountain rescue people ten minutes away, one of whom kept her warm in a tent and fed her her painkillers and jelly babies till the helicopter came. She has a nastily bruised arm and a plate in her elbow. Dawn now going back out with David, so lots to talk about over  Thai curry and plum crumble. I always enjoy being in Dawn's cozy house, which looks at the back across fields up to the Downs.
