Smithfield Market

Smithfield Meat Market was still surrounded by white vans and pallets of meat at 9.30 this morning. They have usually all gone by 6am.  I guess this is probably the busiest weekend of the year for the butchers.

It's the only photo I took today, the only time I went out, for a routine blood test. I still feel dreadful. We came to London to hear the Academy of Ancient Music's Handel's Messiah in the Barbican, but 2000 people would not like to be sitting near me.  MrHCB has just headed off by himself. I'm going to bed!
