AFTER I get the routine stuff out the way i nip down to the village shop with a couple of prototype ‘I climbed Conic Hill’ badges to see if they like them and want to order any.

They do…and order another tub of Balmaha pencils…so I get back to the office and start production!

In between times I go through last week’s video footage for Meet me in the City and discard the duplicate and less exciting shots. There’s about 20 gig of video left.

After lunch i make a meal plan for the next week and send Margaret a shopping list. Looks like our pal Elina is coming to stay Friday and Saturday so I need to decide what we’re gonna be eating.

I spend the afternoon on the merch and deliver it later on then prepare the sous vide chicken to take to Betty and Joe tonight

We have a lovely night with Betty and Joe…Sandy pops in later on… and I get Betty’s new iPhone up and running…
