Anthea took me to lunch at Perry's, a large garden centre/nursery/restaurant in Inworth. Salmon and broccoli pie and jacket (baked) potato. And my American friends must understand that English broccoli is tender and flowery; and one can still buy purple sprouting broccoli, a little more expensive because it is a biennial; therefore less commercially viable.
Whilst Anthea had her afternoon nap I nipped off to Colchester again, I'd seen something in a shop window on one of my previous visits that I just had to buy. And I browsed in a chain bookstore, not half as interesting as Browsers in Woodbridge . . . and bought a couple of books. Paperbacks; not expensive tomes. Another quiet day wondering where the time went . . .
