Went for nice walk to Downtown Wamberal, picked up PO Box items, popped into the Newsagents Extraordinaire (‘This time next year we’ll be millionaires’, lamented with A. about the drought of any really good Indian restaurants here and together we shed a tear thinking about the last Brummy Balty we had in the Old Country.

Then, of course, thanked his Good Lady for the stellar Rogan Josh & Butterchicken dishes she provided so kindly pre-Easter, and then lo and behold my near neighbour S. pops up and offers me a lift home! And that’s all before breakfast!

Also got to meet another new stunning serene friend (with long, gorgeous droopy ears) called Ned.. not a bad start to the day.
