end of the day

 Tennis (lost, lost, lost); coffees (should I still keep playing? do they wish I'd find people more my own level to play tennis with? have I got anything to contribute?)
Lunch, hot bath & out to street party. Marquee about a yard from our front door so not too onerous in terms of travel. We spent a lot of time talking to our next-door neighbours, who we rarely see: our timetables are different though turns out a lot of our tastes are the same.
