I’M still running around getting routine stuff out the way when my Thursday morning guitar student arrives.

The lesson goes well then I get the pizza dough out the fridge. My cousins Ian and Zila and Zila’s partner John are coming for lunch.

They arrive just after midday. We sit in the garden and enjoy a drink and blinis – Margaret’s doing and very nice they are too – while the pizza oven warms up.

It’s a bit windy so we put up one of the old gazebo walls which does the trick.

We have a great afternoon and evening catching up then they hit the road just after 8pm and we get tidied up.

Neither of us are hungry so we have some snacks and watch a few episodes of Bosch:Legacy before falling asleep on the couch.
