Back at the crease

Unseasonably warm day. When we eventually got up, Lorraine drove us to collect Beth from teaching and Lorraine drove us to Three Bridges as Beth had a casting this afternoon in London, passing a rail replacement bus broken down on the motorway, the passengers in a crowd on the motorway verge waiting to be collected.

It was a day of quality time with Lorraine. In the evening we hopped on a bus, for a quick drink in the busy The Cricketer's pub, where Lorraine and I used to meet before we were married, and where we had our wedding reception getting on for five years ago. Then on to Indian Summer for a birthday meal. The starters are excellent, we shared Bhel Puri, and Onion, Carrot and Potato Pakodas and I had the Hyderabadi murgh, my favourite thing there, while Lorraine as usual had the Indian Summer Thali, which is served in lots of little containers. Lovely stuff. Home to watch the film Seven Psychopaths on Netflix which, despite being a bit blood spattered, was fun.
