Doing things

Last Friday was a working Friday, but we went out in the evening, had dinner at Wagamama (where either they have significantly changed the pad thai recipe, or someone in the kitchen didn't know what they were doing, as it contained considerably more chilli than I was expecting) and then went to see John Finnemore performing live at the Old Fire Station (he seems to be doing a tiny tour, with one member of the Souvenir Programme cast each time, reading about 45 minutes of sketches, then doing one of the Double Acts in full and ending with Since You Asked Me. Not your usual comedy gig, but extremely funny.)

Yesterday I went swimmming (briefly) and added belt loops to a pair of trousers I don't much like the fit of. To be honest, the belt loops don't help much (the front rise is just too high) but they will stop me worrying the trousers might fall down completely. I only broke two needles doing it...

Today I made a start on sewing the shirt I'd cut out before Christmas, and watched an online panel discussion about comfort reads.

And tomorrow is Monday of week 1 and my first committee of the term, oh joy.

Oh joy, indeed! I do think you are clever to be able to make your own clothes - I can make a basic summer skirt if I have to, but that's about all, and as I don't really wear skirts....

I've rather stopped going to Wagamama; it's not nearly as nice as it used to be, and has got expensive for what it is. At least they still serve free green tea with a meal.

I also went off Wagamama. Am a little envious of you seeing John Finnemore, am a big fan

Oh, that sounds like such a great gig!
