Family trip to Cambridge before I set to polishing my Jaguar for the first time
Up a little early for a Saturday, washed and dressed on a morning again without a Financial Times. A quick breakfast and, Daniel off to school, the rest of us by car to Cambridge where we managed to find a 2 hour parking meter near the town centre. Diana took Daniella for Di’s contact lens appointment and Debbie joined me to look around the book shops and market. We eventually manage to find a good selection of early writing books and add purchases of plums and strawberries for tea. A couple of disasters as first we fail to find each other at Eaden Lilleys (occupying different coffee shops on successive floors) and then I learn that the Optician managed to break Diana’s contact lenses whilst trying to polish them. Home via St Neots where we buy our prawns for tea and also a frozen trout for tomorrow. Our normal Saturday Happy Eater lunch where I change dishes to try the diet burger. The afternoon giving my Jaguar a complete vacuum, wash, wax and shine for the first time in a few weeks.
Then, after tea, to play Elite with Daniel and his friends as their ship gains weapons and treasure galore. This evening to watch televised rugby and highlights of Bo Derek in Tarzan, before a late night watching my first football for some time. Today was fine, warm and sunny, but tomorrow is forecast rainy which, if true, will spoil our planned trip to the Shuttleworth flying display.
