A walk with some ladies- tour of the area


Today, junior and I went for a walk with 7 or 8 nice French women. We were of course the only boys except for one other baby boy who came along with his mum, I do not speak French, much to my shame but intend to learn (or have been) saying that for the last 10 years. Junior cried a bit and I had to dash into a shop to change his nappy on the floor of a pharmacy. We found out where a good supermarket is and an outdoor vegetable and fruit market. The market is open only Fridays and Saturdays. Important things when you are a man at home and the main (only) cook in the house. Little things like that in my world mean a lot. My next idea is to join the "Women's Institute", I'll get my dress out and hope they don't notice my beard.

It was good to get out the flat and mix with others. Today at one o'clock the landlady comes who only speaks Russian, to fit a small wooden piece of furniture by the front door for coats, (she chose it from a catalog) it is not my taste but she is paying, besides I could not argue anyway as I don't speak Russian. I must also fix the new car plates to the car, (that's another story the moving company lost our car papers so its only now that we can drive it although the car has been here for 4 weeks). I'll do this while Junior is sleeping in his bed. Yes I know you cry, "you can't leave a child alone", but its only for 10 Min's and his is in his room asleep and can't come to any harm. The weather in Moscow has changed and is now cold, windy and wet. So far, all is quiet next door and the TV and drilling has not yet started but who knows this could change later? - see other post.
