Teresa had her head wound checked and the dressing renewed today. Then we had a brief riverside walk.
After that I suggested we make up for yesterday’s trials and tribulations by having lunch at Elsie’s Tea Room. Which we duly did.
Teresa had a toasted cheese and ham sandwich, and I had baked potato with tuna-mayo and grated cheese. Delish!
We had a pot of tea each, and finished off with a knickerbocker glory, for dessert. I also bought two jars of conserves (marmalade and strawberry jam), and four ‘quarters’ of tuck shop style sweets.
Bliss!
The bill was pretty modest – esp’ in today’s extortionate climate – for what we got. And the pure joy of it all made it worth every penny.
The only slightly bum note was my hayfever, which was horribly intense. I took a piriton tablet. But to no discernible effect. And the constant sneezing quite wore me out
But, all told? O’ Frabjous Day! Simple pleasures are often the best.
