Yesterday was dominated by a return lunch with (the same) old friends at The Swan in Thaxted. Most enjoyable, and the Beef & Pancetta Lasagne was excellent. Possibly not my best ever photo, taken by the waitress:
Any hopes of even a short digestive walk afterwards were crushed - or perhaps soaked and squelched out of existence - by heavy rain that began just as we were thinking about leaving:

Despite that, and although heading in opposite directions, we both went only a few miles before getting wall-to-wall sunshine. Extraordinary weather, again.
Once home we couldn't find the energy for much more than the last two rounds of Tuesday's Great British Bake-Off and, in my case, a doze or two. Sue had a wind band rehearsal in the evening so we didn't eat again until I did a couple of (traditionally) poached eggs on toast at about 22:00..
Not surprisingly I missed my activity target, although only by a small handful of points. My ambition for today must be to hit the target before boules at Birchanger in the evening. Forecast looks dry, if rather colder than the last few days.
As for wse immune-compromised myeloma patients, yet again I've spent a lot of time explaining the difference (if any) between Boosters and Primary 3 and why it's important to get them recorded right. Must have sent virtually the same post to various places a dozen times, and still people come and ask what's the difference...
Electrically heated gloves have arrived from Up The Jungle. Should be useful for general wintery purposes as well as for boules. Hope to try them out later.
Bad snoring night last night, according to SnoreLab. Thoroughly annoyed about having to wait until late December to get an NHS CPAP machine. I want to get on with this NOW!! Still, I suppose it will be a Christmas present, of a kind.
