Saturday …
Since not working a five day week I have grown accustomed to an outing at the weekend! So in the absence of a planned workshop, me and the other half have a plan B. Sadly, it is raining and that was not a factor considered yesterday. Nonetheless, never say die until the ‘fat lady sings’ and be sure of the old adage ‘rain before seven will clear by eleven’. So I have great hopes for this morning! A week or two back I went to Little Venice in London and had a little reconnoiter; it was raining then so I didn’t hang around long. Also, I did have other pressing arrangement s to attend to. This morning we will return and this time we will take a London water bus along the Grand Union Canal to Camden Lock for a stroll and lunch.
However, there is another reason for concern. I have been watching Peaky Blinders on the television for the past few weeks. There are, I hear, among those ‘barge types’ rogues, vagabonds and bandits who will rape and pillage of the price of a pint, so if I do not return by tomorrow …
If you haven’t been watching Peaky Blinders then catch it on iplayer.
