To Oxford St, for various haberdashery items in John Lewis. I was going to buy a new raincoat (have we had rain ? do bears sh*t in the woods ?) but tried on my old Burberry from 1975. It's in good nick and still fits, but needs two new buttons, and it will be like new. I remember we got it half price in the sale - £75 - a tremendous price in those days, but as I've had it for 28 years, that works out at less than £3 per year - bargain ! So I got the buttons and some elastic thread to re-string a necklace, a swimsuit in BHS sale and some yoga trousers. There will be morning and evening yoga on Skyros next month.

Had a look at the new iPhone, after which I have lusted ever since it came out, but the calling rates from outside the UK are phenomenal, and as I travel a lot, it probably makes no sense to buy one. So I didn't. But as soon a I can think of a good enough excuse...

I could never afford one myself, this was half price in the sale and it was my Christmas present from Laurence, who was still only my boyf in those days. I remember the price because it was so much. And you know what ? 1975 is not 28 years ago, it's 33 years ago !

Is it still so hot in Spain or has it cooled down now ?
