L is quickly in touch to tell me about her day so far, chocolate
for breakfast etc because she’s getting stressed at work and that's after all the time
I spent on stress relief first thing this morning.
Hope she doesn’t drown herself at Aquarobics tonight. Yes, I
know. Aquarobics? What’s that all about but I can’t knock it, never tried it.
She tells me it’s a bit like bobbing up and down at the Outlaw Half swim warm
up but without a bunch of over trained nutters and psychos about to mow you
down and in nice clean warm water with the added security of a life jacket.
I could have done with that life jacket myself as we indulge
in some comedy tennis in the rain. It is odd that we are the only one’s still
playing as the threatened drizzle proves more resilient than expected. When we
try and move into the dryness of the empty ‘bubble’ courts we suddenly find
them fully booked. Funny that.
We manage two sets then dry out in the Victoria. L is
delayed trying to join us when her tram is stopped so that they can arrest
someone. I’m on my second pint by the time she arrives, not that this is a
problem.
