Eric and Adrian are on a scout hike, and Ingrid is going camping with her group of friends tomorrow. Feeling almost left out, I decided to also go camping tomorrow. Which means that I rather urgently need a new sleeping pad. I tried to patch the old one when it sprang a leak, but it still had a slow leak afterwards. I could lie on it for 15 minutes and not notice anything, but after three hours it was noticeably deflated. Having to get up in the middle of the night to re-inflate it is not fun.

Thus, to town for errands. Sleeping pad; cotton fabric and pattern for a dressing gown; wool fabric and yarn for my next embroidery project; some small stuff from the pharmacy.

Stockholm Marathon passed through the city while I was there but I happened to pass the route only when the runners weren’t there, so I didn’t see anything more than banners, and heard some distant cheering.

Lunch at Waipo (delicious dim sum and spring rolls and chrysanthemum tea) brought back memories of team lunches there with Urb-it. I wonder how they’re doing.
