Important things when travelling. Timetables, knowing where you are and the shower. Getting the temperature right is a science. Not squirting water out the door helps. I always forget to read the bottles on the shower shelf. I mostly grab the most interesting shape – which is only partly visible, and give my hair a good old squirt. That squeezy bottle could be industrial strength Draino. But they all work.

Sparkling clean I leave the apartment and dodge the drizzle in the hunt for the Dixon St Deli. It is a grey day. Another bearded fellow (showered?) Perches happily outside reading the progress on the unblocking of the Suez Canal.


Large flat white. Friendly staff and a cheery wave when I leave ~ is this a good or a bad sign?
That’s great, Dodie. Laughed. Really enjoyed it. And what did you choose for breakfast?
