Ellie pottered into our bedroom soon after 6:30. "Grandpa, where's my school iPad?" The last time I saw it was on the console table on the landing, but Di had moved it downstairs to the kitchen for some reason. So at this ridiculous time of the morning, I was wandering around the house looking for the iPad (which isn't an iPad, it's a Microsoft Surface). Finally, clutching the errant tablet, Ellie returned to her room and I returned to bed for another 25 minutes.
We had the usual morning protocol - coffee, tea, empty dishwasher, fruit for Ellie, ham for Ellie, bread and jam for Ellie, then ablutions and dressing for school. It was very wet so we sloshed through the puddles to get her to school before returning for our own breakfast.
Being Thursday, which is, traditionally, our shopping day, we headed for Sainsbury's. It wasn't urgent this week as I had shopped on Monday, but there was a list of items that would be needed before next Thursday. With our local Tesco still underwater, Sainsbury's had a lot of additional customers. Many of them clearly do not have the requisite etiquette for Sainsbury's stores or car parks. It was quite obvious who were regulars and who were interlopers.
Accounts were updated and I answered some emails before settling down for a quiet afternoon with the Kindle. Diane went along to join Zoe in meeting Ellie from school. I stayed put with the Kindle.
