On the cactus cushion

Most of the day spent sorting out documents for the estate agent. It seems to have taken a ridiculously long time, and I was waning by tea time. Didn't set a foot outside the gate all day, nor did MrM. Must remedy this situation tomorrow.

Family messages and calls during the day. Tom's still suffering from Covid, says it feels like a bad dose of 'flu. Lucy hasn't had the best of birthdays, but has made the most of it. She went by train to wave at her dad through the hospital window (he has Covid among other things, so visiting has been suspended), then cycled back to Leeds by the canal, calling in to see Tom (outside and at a distance) on the way. At least she's keeping fit. And my sister seems perplexed at our moving plans.

Smart Plugs! Saw them on offer and decided to take advantage of it, in the hope that they'll help to save energy. Haven't had time yet to work out how to make them work!
