Kate is in Kent, and Beth is in Spain. I’m alone this morning, with just a cooked breakfast, a mug of tea, and the Chinese F1 qualifying to watch.

Andrew is coming around for lunch. I’ve got dough rising at the moment, so we’ll have fresh bread. We’ll be having a ploughman’s; double gloucester is today’s cheese of choice, and beetroot pickle to go with it.

We lunched at Littlejohns.

ormsweird, hobbitomm, and toddler Eve, were in town, and we were also joined by zephyravictrix, e_halmac, scrivener13, and meepfrog. The company was excellent, and the food was better than I remembered from our previous visits.

Kate’s main course was ridiculously small — I was astonished that they would try to charge £9 for a small bowl of pasta in tomato sauce — but they happily provided a supplemental portion.



On the way home Beth and I walked along the beach in grey, miserable rain. It was good to be out by the sea, and even better to get home and warm and dry.

Working from home today, I made myself cheesy pasta for lunch. I mean, is there really a better lunch than cheesy pasta?
