After breakfast Anto and Rhiannon headed back to Kenilworth by train, and later on Owain returned to Bristol. Kath is staying on with us for a few more nights, and has the car, which will enable her to go and see friends also. After the departures, we went for a pre-lunch drink at Coffee #1 and then a stroll together in the park. It wasn't as busy as usual in the shop. You wouldn't have thought it was a Bank Holiday, one of two consecutive days off this year. I wondered if people weren't going out so much due to covid concerns and extra restrictions, now in force here in Wales.
I set to work on recording and editing this week's Morning Prayer video in fits and starts, and uploaded it before bed. I also did the preparation for this Thursday's funeral at St John's. It was a little more difficult than usual because I was sent the Eulogy and the attendees list in a file format that was difficult to read on a non-MacOS device. I don;t recall that happening before, but I got there in the end, and all is ready now.
After yesterday's dry weather, today it rained intermittently, though fortunately not when I went for a walk in the hour before sunset. We had traditional Christmas chestnut casserole for supper, and started a bottle Barolo, the first I've had in many years. Then we watched 'The Queen' a 2006 movie about what happened in the Royal household following the death of Princess Diana. Very well done with stellar performances by Helen Mirren as Her Majesty and a younger Michael Sheen as Tony Blair, a superb production, well worth the down-time while working on this weeks video.
