I am curled up on a sofa in a bay window overlooking the Ouse, on which lights are reflecting, listening to P remind himself how pianos work. His parents are through in the kitchen putting together dinner (I helped with food last night). We bimbled briefly through town this morning - along a stretch of the wall around the minster, via a cafe that served us pistachio-rose-cardamom cake - and I spent much of the afternoon napping while he caught up on marking at his desk. Over breakfast I managed to actually help with a couple of Araucaria clues - P's mother had been saving the crossword for the next time he was around. This is proper lovely.

You've introduced me to three new words! YAY!

I adore "bimble" and will hold it close to my tongue forthwith.

As you probably already know, there are four rivers named Ouse in the UK; what a clever disguise.

The Araucarian crossword sounds Himalayan: congrats.

Hope your holidays including many cakes and nibbles.
