Up and out early for a walk to Ravensheugh in bright sunshine.  Much warmer than I expected - was somewhat over dressed.   Had a chat to the swans then back into the study to get on with the course.

Nice catch up with friends down in Londinium then tea with A's mum.   Watched Murder on the Orient Express on catch up - the Kenneth Branagh one.   Didn't really do it for me - fell asleep half way through!  Give me the 1970's edition with Albert Finney any time. 

Extra of Mrs Swan and two of her growing cygnets.
