A
restless night; that dog really should stay in his basket. "er
indoors TM" was up early and offered to
cook my toast. That was nice. Over brekkie I did a little astro
secretary-ing. The speaker we thought was long-since booked for the
July meeting isn't replying to emails. I chivvied him from a
different email account, then played about on badgemaster dot co dot
uk designing badges for committee members.
"er
indoors TM" said goodbye and set off. I
would have liked to have gone with her; there was a lesson today in
how to use GSAK. GSAK is a wonderful bit of software with which you
can program your GPS unit with most (but not all) of the live
geocaches in any given area, and even some of the dead ones as well.
But
during the week things had taken an unexpected turn so I collected
"Daddies Little Angel TM" and
drove down to Hastings to see my dad instead. He's not been well
lately.
Despite
some iffy weather the journey to Hastings was uneventful. We arrived
and it wasn't long before "Stormageddon - Bringer of
Destruction TM" had taken a bite
from every bit of fruit in my mum's fruit bowl. To make amends
"Daddies Little Angel TM" ate some
of the fruit. She quote liked the pear. How can you get to be twenty
seven years old and never had a pear before?
Dad
seemed to enjoy our visit; he was looking better than he was the last
time I saw him.
We
had a rather good bit of dinner, then had to make a move. It would
have ben goood to have stayed all day but today was one of those days
when I was pulled in several directions. We then came home and made
our way to WIllesborough where the clans gathered to say goodbye to
Emily. Billed as a tea party I shifted four pints of ale before
coming home and walking "Furry Face TM"
into a thunderstorm.
Needless
to say we cut our walk short...
