We seem to be turning this into a new tradition - a pre-Christmas treat at the Brasserie of Light in Selfridges after a day of Christmas shopping. Well a day for Dave - I only managed a couple of hours. Another cold day but very bright.
Non-working but busy day. Tried to phone about Dave's wrong coat delivery, but they didn't answer and sent the flat expenses to sister T for her tax return all before showering. Went to my mum's for a good hour and a half helping her fill out the form that the Finnish bank needs and write the covering letter that my cousin helped draft.
Walked to Highgate after to start on my shopping list - found fill your own crackers in Shelter and book presents in the nice bookshop. Travelled into town and picked up our favourite wrapping paper from Marks as well as thermal leggings for my mum.
Met Dave at the Brasserie for a slap-up supper of oysters and lemon sole (prawn curry for Dave) and a couple of glasses of Veuve Cliquot. Home on a very busy Victoria line.
I would say ‘well deserved’.
