A parrot called Walnut by boxplayer

A parrot called Walnut

Or that's what I heard anyway - perched on the head of this lady selling rather lovely enamelled jewellery at a makers' market in Wanstead.

Dave was going to a session so I cycled to this market - bought the odd thing but annoyingly I'd forgotten my bag. Luckily I was able to snaffle a sought-after market tote bag.

Cycled home via Wood Street and a falafel platter at Mini HIba, a Palestinian / Lebanese cafe. Very delicious and more than I was expecting.

Rested at home for a short while intercepting increasingly annoying messages about family photos on the sisters WhatsApp before cycling to Sainsbury's for top-up shopping and Argos purchases for my mum - new bathroom scales and a toilet roll holder.

Feel exhausted now and don't feel like I've had a rest haha.

The parrot doesn’t seem to be distracting her.

I have a feeling parrots will love walnuts! He looks like he’s well used to perching up there.

Ha, very good! When I was a teenager in Brighton, there was a very very tall punk with a parrot that lived on his shoulder all day. He worked in local punk clothes shop but I even saw him once at a gig with the bird still there. Animals are fab.
