LMP Christmas

Mass, art at St Stephen Norbury (nice that Julie came) and voted. It is a right pain that we have to go over the hill to do so. Excellent Christmas meal at Langley Park golf club Beckenham circle most enjoyable. What a depressing prospect. Brexit and Boris. Climate change not addressed. We need proportional representation. One Green MP is not enough and so few Lib Dems. Scotland demanding to break away. The editors of newspapers who advocated Brexit have done this to our country. Who will do the jobs when so many leave? The Tories care only about money. At least Corbyn stuck to his principles even if some of them were wrong. Mass, a delightful lunch at Rosemary's and the house is transformed. Sang with Welcome choir at Lmp concert at St John's. It was fun!  A varied programme with good soloists. 

Shrove Tuesday

Took Henry to music gems at the Salvation Army and he loved it. Then to Crystal Palace park playground, bacon butties and the dinosaurs. To quiet hour and Liz went to Lourdes Mass in the cathedral crypt. Caught up on Antiques roadshow, Only connect, University challenge and Couples come dine with me. Sewing bee. We had American fluffy pancakes. 

Kennington Park

Swam 20. To Kennington Park to meet Shereen and Noreen about the raised bed garden for the disabled. Met Tony Clark who works for Lambeth council who are only interested in making money out of the park. There is a good cafe and a lovely flower garden.  Catching up on recorded TV e.g. An island Parish and animal sleep. Liz working in the garden. Mosaics put up and got water features going.  Gareth Malone wonderful Invictus choir and Paul O'Grady and the Salvation Army.

Sir Peter Maxwell Davies

Liz went to see Clare. I practised on the piano including the Elgar Vesper voluntaries two of which Peter played yesterday. Watched the rest of the tribute to Max. Designed Catenian presentation and ordered photo frames. Hannah arrived at Clare's and asked for a lift to Mass (!) so instead of going on the train, I drove up. It poured coming home and we went on a windy route. Fr Brian preached really well. Watched the end of Quartet - lovely film and booked for the night at Hythe. Paul O'Grady and the Salvation Army is a good series.
