Liz took Sean to Natural History museum. I went to 6 Provinces meeting at Eccleston Square (saw  Martin Foster ). In the evening to Chislehurst golf club for Blackheath and Chislehurst meeting and dinner which was most enjoyable! I won whisky on the raffle! 

Sheikh Ramzy

Did not go swimming. Did Wild Goose Qi Gong with youtube as Tony suggested and rather like it.   To Gate cinema to see Roberto Devereux from the Met. Great production and singing but they do go on a bit! 10 minutes to say farewell! Donizetti so often has a cheery tune at moments of crisis. To. V and A for Undressed and then the lovely Wildlife photography at Natural history museum. Mediaeval gallery at V and A always a joy! Met Rosie from tai chi. She has two pictures at Bankside gallery next week. Posh tea and waffle at Le Pain Quotidien and then to oil painting class.To Tamar's and after lunch at Watermans we went to the park. Sunny but cold wind. Am enjoying Isabel Dalhousie novel by Alexander McCall Smith. To interfaith group and Sheikh Ramzy gave an impassioned address supporting Pope Francis. 10 there. I bought Amoris Laetitiae. Then to Conversations at SGI - 9 came including Ishmael who is Muslim converting to Orthodox Jew!

Nick came to get the car for MOT and servicing. Good to see him - he is officially retired and the garage site is still derelict with recent flytipping. Met Louise and the boys at Natural History museum. Ciaran loved the dinosaurs - new high walkway is good but not so keen on T.Rex. Loved the large mammals and birds. To Science museum to see the model trains and loved the water play. I went to Heythrop for the Jewish society Purim party which was fun with dressing up, a play and Dan singing the Hebrew text of Esther. Home to get dining room ready for organists association committee. Cambridge visit moved to Sept 28th and St Michael's organ recital series agreed. Left with 2 opened bottles of wine and I have given up alcohol for Lent!
