I can go to bed tonight feeling very happy and pleased with myself.   Okay, so I did start with a Monmouth coffee.  I keep telling myself to stop drinking lattes but this is so good.  I don’t take sugar in it by the way, but this was the only spot to take the photo as it was busy in there today.

I made time at lunch time to wander round the market.  There are so many tempting fruit and veggie stalls in the market these days,  filled with wonderful produce. I bought some of these yellow and purple beans. Over at Turnip I bought 3 ripe peaches for £1 !  What great value. I also bought one of the green and purple lettuces.  Hope it’s good as it cost £2.20. This little flower shop always looks so pretty. Final stop was TAS, the Turkish cafe.  I chose a salad box with 6 selections in it: humous, falafel, tabbouleh, spinach and apple, chick pea and pepper and bulgur wheat, tomatoes and nuts which was fabulous.  Such a delicious box of yumminess. I love watching and playing tennis.  This year (and last year) I have rarely managed to play.  Lovely Annette kindly asked me to be her partner for the local tennis club annual tournament and tonight was our first match.  It was such a perfect evening for tennis and we had a good match, particularly considering we have never played together before.  We did lose but it was great to be out there running around and playing instead of sitting inside.

After our match, we went to Club Night and played some more so I played tennis for about 2 hours tonight.  I really enjoyed it.

Back at home, I just ate an apple and a peach with a cup of Rooibos.  I will probably ache tomorrow but I am so pleased I made time for tennis tonight.  Thank you Annette for persevering with me.
