So after finishing the phone, I decided to wash the dishes and clean the toilets, which took an hour's hard labour in my morning. Then I practised some Tai Chi and prepared lunch - nothing fancy, just jasmine rice with tomato, but when I finished devouring the nosh, I grabbed the Linzer we'd bought in Vienna on Monday and scarfed it dow...
