For part of my final day as a "free man", i took my brother Dave fishing to the exact same spot on Chesil beach (as on the 23rd). Expecting to harvest more mackerel, we caught 1 mini cod between us after 3.5 hrs fishing. Hmm.But what meant most to me, was spending some valuable quality time with him - chatting, laughing, eating sandwiches, company.
Some things, when distilled to their most simple, can be incredibly meaningful/beautiful.
This evening, Claudia and i went out for dinner at Jamie Oliver's restaurant in Bath.
It was a bit like a "last meal". We reminisced about the favourite-est ever meals we'd had together. The flavours were so intense and we ate like pi... a lot.
Opportunities to dine like this may well soon be a thing of the past. Post-surgery, i will have a much smaller stomach (inside my chest) and i'll become an expert on children's menus!
