Cloudy again, but a little warmer today. For a change Clare made waffles for breakfast. I spent most of the morning reading 'Sangre Nueva' Clare went out for a walk and cooked lunch when she returned, roast veg and her own version of savoury borlotti beans. I dozed for half an hour afterwards then walked in Llandaff and Pontcanna Fields for a couple of hours. As I was returning up the riverside path to Blackweir, Clare was walking in the opposite direction towards me. We agreed to continue our courses and meet at the cafe at the campsite on the opposite side of the playing field. Unfortunately we were too late for a drink, so we walked home together for tea and cake.
I continued reading before and after supper for a while and then watched the first episode of series two of a German series 'Krimi aus Passau' entitled 'Dark Rivers' on Channel 4 Walter Presents. It's set in the medieval town of Passau, a Bavarian German city on the border with Austria, much of it built on an island where the rivers Inn and Ilz flow into the Danube. It's a good watch, made more enjoyable by the clarity of the German spoken, much of which I can still follow, though it's decades since I last used it. Then bed.
