A dull dank and misty day. Some rain but it's that fine sticky rain. Ugh!
I had to pop into town to get food provisions anyway. I also checked out the market and picked up some fine coffee to drink later on as well as some hot chocolate drink I then have a nose around the charity shop next to Spoons before popping into the pub.
I found this rather excellent condition LP set of Puccini's Tosca for a quid in there. It has the complete libretto, plus I also ordered via Amazon marketplace the 1990 reissue of the set on CD in the original fat CD cases before the slim Duo ones came out. This will have the libretto as well unlike those slim-cased Duo reissues. I do have Duo releases but they are all orchestral ones.

The chazzer also has a copy of Madam Butterfly so if it is still around next Monday I will pick it up as well - and assuming it's a quid!
I also have Turandot on CD so I might as well the other major operas of his.
