Tuesday. April 8/2014

Ipad mini only half charged when we go to Starbucks, so I take the plug in for it. And, plugging it in at an awkward angle under the seat, create a small fireball and blow the circuit, although not, fortunately, the plug. Scarred, slightly blackened, and missing a tiny bit of metal on one prong - but it's a big, sturdy UK plug and still works fine. Which is good because ipad charger plugs cost £15, or equivalent elsewhere.

Out to West Harrow to see Jean. Four weeks since she had the cataract operation on the first eye and she's quite pleased with all the extra light and hoping for the second op soon. Good talk looking out at her little back garden and the blackbirds, and we go with her a couple of streets over to pick up some Chinese take away for supper - although as usual she has fed us enough starters that we could have managed without supper. But glad we didn't as it was very good.
