Down to Trafalgar Square to do the banking. On the other side of the square Canada House has not yet reopened. When? Three months or maybe a year, we're told by a man unlocking the door. Can he really have said "when the high commissioner comes back"? Must have misheard. In front of the National Gallery there's a poppy blitz on, with a pipe band, a Harley Davidson and three double-decker buses - one of them a routemaster, boarded a few minutes earlier by Prince Charles when the convoy stopped at St James's Palace on its fundraising run.
Up to Kilburn High Road in the evening for dinner. Our regular pub and its regular specials - seafood basket (me) and cottage pie (J). Two for £6.49.
