I slept well. Over brekkie I had my usual root around the
Internet. It was still there and much the same as ever. People were asking the
questions on Facebook pond-related pages and getting the same rude answers.
Having been following these for some time it would seem that many people think
that it is quite acceptable to chuck any and all chemicals into your pond *except*
tap water. Apparently that burns the fish? Odd – I’ve been drinking the stuff
for years.
I had a message from someone who’d done my geocaches in
Kings Wood; openly admitting to having been cheating on the Wherigos. Others
have openly admitted to cheating too… over the years there’s been logs on my
geocaches from six of the country’s top twenty finders all of which I’ve caught
out cheating in one way or another. Mind you I say “caught out”; they
are quite open about it. I know they are only cheating themselves, but why do
they do this?
I took the dogs up to Kings Wood where we had a very good
wander round. The dogs were all good, stayed close and didn’t need to be called
or told off. They really are little angels when no one else is watching.
Sadly when we came back to the car we had an episode. I
opened the boot of the car; they all jumped in. This is what we always do. I
then do a whistle and give them a treat… some passing idiot saw me get the
treat bag out of my pocket and brought his dog over on the off-chance there was
a treat going. Had we been out and walking there certainly would have been. But
another dog coming into my dogs’ territory (the car’s boot) was a recipe
for disaster.
Once it was all settled the passing idiot maintained that
he had done nothing wrong…
We came home to another episode. I drove down the road
straight into a parking space. The DHL lorry that had been following me far too
close had also driven into the parking space behind me. As he watched me get
out, the driver got quite angry that I’d somehow wasted his time. He reversed
and flew off cursing.
Had he been a few yards further back he would have seen
what was going on…
I popped to the corner shop for pastries, made a cuppa for
us both to go with them, and sparked up the lap-top. I pootled about a bit, wrote up a little CPD, and
thought about doing some work in the garden. But only thought about it; I
couldn’t be arsed.
I took myself off to bed for the afternoon where I found myself
fighting with the dogs for bed space, And when we finally all got sorted so the
girls wanted to go back downstairs.
I didn’t really sleep that well; it was too hot. I gave up
after a couple of hours and solved geo-puzzles for a bit.
Hopefully “er indoors TM” will feed me in
a bit, then I’m off to the night shift. Can’t say I’m keen on it. Today, like
any day before a night shift, has been spent thinking that I’ve got to go to
work later.
But there it is…
