Yesterday was another wet and miserable day, so I didn't venture outside at all. I sorted out a few things online, including updating my shopping order and rearranging a cancelled flight back from Paris. We moved our planned trip to Disneyland from February to September, then EasyJet conveniently cancelled our flight so we were able to change the date to September at no cost. This was originally a flight booked to come back from a trip to Italy in July - the plan was to take the train out with a stop in Turin on the way to Lake Garda, then fly home. Fingers crossed it is third time lucky!
H went to the gym in the morning. After exercising at home since she came home from uni she decided to rejoin. It looks as though the government has decided that the measures gyms are taking to keep people safe are working, and that the benefit of exercise is greater than the risk in keeping them open. When she got home she baked sausage rolls. These are made with chicken sausage-meat, stuffing and cranberry sauce. She also makes a vegetarian version and both are very, very good. During the afternoon I read a bit of Jan Morris's Europe, knitted a good chunk of the second sock of a pair, and did a bit of writing. H was in cooking mode and made roast beef, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings and all the trimmings for dinner. Definitely going to miss her roasts when she moves out, but she has promised to invite us over for dinner regularly! In the evening we did a Zoom quiz organised by a colleague from work. She has run it on three occasions, asking participants for donations for a charity which runs food banks, and has raised over £1000.
