abendgulesWe found out about the huge earthquake in NZ on Saturday, but a call home to Robert's family determined that everyone was fine; large tools danced across the shed, a car crunched by a fallen chimney. Sounds like Southron Guard has escaped with just interrupted power, water and internet, though the cleanup of the city centre will take awhile.

After a reasonably lazy Saturday, and being treated to a select menu at Alaric and Nerissa's on Sat PM (Alaric just plain likes cooking for people) we cycled to Knightsbridge/Sloan Square area to visit some pusscats (one of R's gaming friends is on holidays).
This is usually a 40 min ride for me south to South bank, then west across Westminster bridge towards the posher part of town. Unfortunately, we chose the day that the Mayor of London was running the Sky Ride, a day of cycling around the city, with closed streets, marshals, and tons of families herding very small cyclists down main roads. So our easy cycle route was made into a series of detours by... cyclists. Argh.
However, said kitties are well, and were glad of attention.
Where Hackney kitties play with butcher's string and consider themselves well entertained, West Kensington kitties play with ribbons off Hermes boxes. :-) However, the play is just the same - kitties are happily oblivious of status other than their own.
Had a very pleasant visit with Basilia, helping to warm her new flat in Leyton. Just about the nicest rental flat I've ever seen in London, and she looks well and happy. She really deserves some good karma, she's had such a crap run of bad.
