Boxing Day

For first time in many years not at Boxing Day Meet in the High Street. Instead 157 Mile’s away from home and Old Father Thames watching Frozen 2 in Cineworld. I am in elegant place where there is no mud and the Christmas lights are subtle, the shopping is good and people are er.. slim .

A Christmas 3 days of long, lazy lie-ins, mininal food. No shopping or washing up and in a house with no Christmas tree. What bliss. Watched brave, young swimmers enter Lido yesterday morning in glorious sunshine walk on hill high above City and the Queens Speech lunch sandwiches from a service station with an M&S. God bless them for being open.
