Monday

After a lovely quiet weekend it's back to my weekly routine except today I want to try a different approach. I'm going to tackle all my week's cleaning chores this morning, once I've uploaded some photos in another post. In theory I should be able to clean all the bathrooms and hoover/wash the floors in that timeframe but, we'll see. I'll make a start on the laundry as well, starting with changing the bed.

I've found my non-fiction book for June (Diversify Your Reading Challenge). I follow the Weird Bristol Instagram account which posts quirky facts about places and historical events in Bristol and the author of that account has written a book, strangely enough also called Weird Bristol, which I added to my Kindle yesterday. It's full of the quirky, odd, and surprising, and the best thing is that the information is arranged as ten separate walks (or one very long one!) so it's possible to walk around the city to see all the different places. I'll have to settle for reading the book for now but guess what I'll be doing when lockdown is a distant memory?

This afternoon is set aside for reading, a 15 minute walk, and watching the third Monty Don programme. It's choir practice tonight when we'll be singing Let the river run, Sisi Sote, Hold back the river, and Hushabye Mountain. 

When choir is over I'll choose a film to watch. I watched Matthew Bourne's Nutcracker last night (interesting but I prefer the traditional version) so I may watch his version of Swan Lake with male corps de ballet which I know I like, or may flick through Netflix and see what I can find.
