Naughty poets at the back

An Enzo for breakfast. Lorraine zooming off to the get the little lad first thing. I had a busy day, but enjoyed spending time with him in between going to my Life Drawing Class. A decent session this morning, I used coloured pencils and a pleasant woman model. Adele not there this morning as she was laying out her show at Gallery Uno. Sat next between a new bloke John, whose work I think is good, and Kate, who is always very accomplished and free and brilliant. Nice session.  Hurried home to see the wee boy, who has a new tooth and is full of beans generally. In the afternoon off to see Cóilín. When I got there I said I was sorry for her loss and gave her a kiss, and she went very quiet for a bit while the nurse settled me into the seat. But we had a lovely conversation about her dad for ten minutes after the scraping was done. Home and a bit of bouncing Enzo on my knee and then off to Brighton, where I went to the Walrus to see Robin, SJB, Stephen and Antony Mair. We went upstair...

Tucked up on a Monday night

Writing. Recording with Robin. Then the gym. Lorraine took Pat and Maureen to see the lovely  Cóilín the dentist who Maureen liked and she was excellent with Pat too. I saw her last month too. Excellent dentist. We were talking about imposter syndrome at one point, and I asked her if dentists ever get that too, and she said yes, which was mildly disconcerting. Both Lorraine and I happy to be tucked up tonight watching Wolf Hall, the Mirror and the Light which was again fabulous. It creates such an engrossing  and almost claustrophobic world. The costumes are amazing too. A feast for the eyes.
