Tuesday 1st: My agent's birthday today. I celebrated it by sending her a chocolate cake from a rather marvellous bakery in Primrose Hill that delivers (in every sense of the word). Do a google search for "Beverley Hills Bakery" if you're interested. No such indulgent pleasures for me mind, carrot and pineapple juice for breakfast, carrot and apple for lunch and carrot, apple, cucumber and celery for dinner. I think I'll miss out the cucmber and celery next time, it gave the drink the appearance of murky dishwater and tasted just about the same (I imagine). If only I had rinsed my cucumber… (Weren't those the last words of Casanova as he lay on his death bed dying of syphilis?)
