Now Playing: The Tea Kettle
Oh what a lovely weekend so far!
Last night we went into London to see a Canadian theatre show "Patience" by Jason Sherman with one of Stephen's old classemates and her beau.
The evening was very pleasent and refreshing, as watching the play transported us back to Canada where people dress like hell, swear casually and speak without pretention. The play itself is a good specimen of what Canadian theatre is generally like...full of promise but comparatively unrefined.
This morning we had a large breakfast (as per usual fried potatoes & eggs) and then set out to town for coffee & groceries.
We stopped into Boots Pharmacy and had my glasses adjusted, as one side was bent and sliding down my face. The friendly glasses-man asked me how I put on and take off my glasses; with one hand, or with two? I performed a test, and discovered I habitually use only my right hand to take off my glasses, which incidently is the same side that is bent on my glasses.
So TIP OF THE DAY: Always put on and take off one's glasses using TWO hands.
To honour the New Year tradition of turning a new leaf, we are indeed attemtping to become healthier and are drinking less alcohol. On the other hand we have consumed a combined total of 18 bags of crisps today (the small bags of course).
On the weather front, it has been unusually windy the past two days with consistent gale-force winds that keeps us up at night. But while in London, along with the trash being blown over and around town, were abandoned Christmas trees being blown across busy streets like tumbelweeds.
