London (1)
I'm still recovering from sleep deprivation on long haul from Auckland to London & overnight Singapore.
Heatwave in London. Wimbledon next week: we're all ready to consume 2 million strawberries -- The Guardian says that's enough strawberries to stretch from Wimbledon to Reading.
On the plane I did a read through of [almost] all of L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E magazine. Almost, because I did skim & skip bits. Clive Bell's rather loose essay on French art [1931] is next up. The Poussin part is strange but interesting. More to come on this.
Sat & watched with my mother: horses at Royal Ascot on TV yesterday. 3 Y.O.F's Group 1 Coronation Stakes ended with a tight finish with Maids Causeway taking it out on the line in spite of shedding a shoe on the front right. Limping but seems to be ok. The Queen wore a blue hat.
