Walked into Littlehampton, had a coffee then walked round to Heather’s. We decided to head for a nearby cafe on the front where Heather knew she could get a decent prawn sandwich and a glass of chilled dry white wine. Unfortunately, when it came to setting off, Heather felt rather wobbly and didn’t think she could make it downstairs to the taxi. So, we sat her back down again while David and I popped along to Waitrose and bought a selection of prawn sandwiches, prawns in mayo, smoked salmon blinis and some salmon sushi [and some dry white wine] and we had a lovely picnic in her flat.
We returned to the Travelodge, then went back down to Heather’s at teatime with the laptop to show her some of our photos, and to have a cup of tea and cake.
Heather still looks her usual glamorous self but is definitely a lot frailer. We tried to persuade her to look into having carers in a couple of times a day like Nancy does, and I think perhaps she will. We left clutching three red balloons which Heather had bought in our honour – we left her with the other three and the rest of the lemon cake!
