Wednesday

Not a particularly thrilling early evening. Tried to play one of our doubles matches in the club championship, but partner Harry tweaked his achilles and we had to stop. Reverted to racquetball but lost 0-3 to Keith.

We met Dick at the golf club and he demonstrated his Leadbetter swing tutor - very complicated. While we were there, news came through from our lawyers that they did not think our appeal in the Court of Session had gone well. I hope they're wrong - would hate for us to be evicted from our squash courts - this would be proof, if proof were needed, that the law is indeed an ass.

The rest of the evening was spent trying to set up Jo's new Ipod, which I bought for her birthday - no doubt there'll now be endless technical issues!

Carole asked me to print off some photos of Luca - including this one, which I think is lovely.
