Failed to print the Gilbert & George poster because it was in a zip format which you have to pay for. There's always a catch.
Bought a daisy plant in Borough Market. Took it home in a taxi and it smelled quite awful. Like ancient pee. Good thing it is going outside in the garden. I think it is called a marguerite.
It rained for a lot of the day. I worked at home later on various things for the office and got some cash out to pay for lunch in France when we take the coach later in the month. I am terrified of finding the office debit card does not work when we try to pay for lunch there and cannot afford to subsidise this myself, so have taken the precaution of getting cash out to avoid future problems. Otherwise I should not have slept until the ordeal (sorry, outing) was over.
Today, we took a coach up to Woburn Safari Park. Julian came to help with pushing a wheelchair. We had a good start, but the weather started dulling down as we did our first safari tour. The animals were wonderful, especially the Siberian tigers. We then had lunch which was quite substantial, but as the weather by this time had deteriorated further, we hung around in the gift shop and had an extra drink. A few braved the weather and went to look at the smaller animals. Before returning home we did another safari tour. This time the lions were more animated, one playing football and others running around. A monkey was dismantling a windscreen wiper. I think people enjoyed the day despite the inclement weather.
Poor Dorothy was ill in bed, partly it seems caused by having put together my garden furniture and caught another cold.
