1. The toast caught a bit so I thought it might be ruined but after a little careful scrapping and essential cooling, all is saved. The browned seeds are wonderfully nutty.
2. Kaufman wrestles John’s hand for a while then he (the cat) and Lily swap place – him from his beloved window seat to the sofa, her from the sofa to cuddle John on Kaufman’s cushion.

4. Disembodied crowd cheers and clapping from beyond the trees. (It reminds me of where we used to live in Leeds, up an embankment from an all-weather pitch. We’d hear similar shouts and the trainers would also bring teams across the canal to run up the hundred stone steps from the basin to the park above – then we’d hear the sound of wretching and laughter.)
5. I need a film that’s not too loud, not filled with negativity or doesn’t need too much engagement while being interesting. I find one that fits the bill perfectly.
