Had only a slight hangover so got up OK at about 10.30.

Had a really good breakfast: a grapefruit and 3 oranges picked fresh from the farmer's trees. The flesh in the grapefruit seemed a lot softer than in grapefruit I have eaten in England.

To ease the boredom of the day Olly and I caused explosions on the gas stove and removed small quantities of blood from Olly's arm. Godwin was only just recovering from the streaks of blue flame leaping around the kitchen so the sight of me twisting a scarf around Olly's elbow and pulling up the plunger of the syringe was just too much.
