Thursday, April 18

This evening we attended a charity dinner organised by the British Women’s Association. We spent a long time with Tom and Maisa, as well as meeting a couple of new people who we could well meet again.

Towards the end Irma won multiple prizes in the grand raffle to the extent that we ended up with an almost-free evening out.

As we leave the embassy I spot a painting of a Union Jack leaning against something. I look at it for a few minutes before we get our coats and walk out into the chilly air.
