I slept through till quarter past four, and then just
dozed on and off which was something of a pain in the glass. I got up at seven
and stood on the scales. I’m under fifteen stone which was something of a
result bearing in mind yesterday’s pig-out.
I made toast and had a look at the Internet as I do
and nearly choked on my coffee. On the right hand side of this blog (if you
are reading it from the blogspot website and not an app or the backup site)
there’s a counter which says how often this blog has been visited. Two days ago
(on the twenty-eighth) my diary was visited half a million times. What
was that all about?
I had a string of emails. Someone had been visiting my
geocaches in Kings Wood yesterday. Having seen them all on the geo-map they’d
booked a Travelodge for the weekend and were making a little holiday out of
what I’d set up there. A surprising amount of people come and stay in the area
just to go for all the geocaches I’ve hidden in Kings Wood. Over the years
there’s been dozens of people who’ve done this but I’ve only ever met one group
of them… and that was because they organised a geo-meet. You’d think more
people might do that (well, I think that!).
I Munzed, got Wordle (elate) on the fourth
attempt and went and woke “er indoors TM” and
the dogs. I’d heard their alarm but they’d slept through it.
With them awake I went and got my car from miles away
and unloaded the Whelan’s shopping. Whelan’s do good stuff; it’s cheap, but
it’s not light.
As I waited for everyone else to get ready so we
listened to Steve on the radio. He was doing the “Guess The Lyrics”
competition. “How can we drive to a movie show when the music is here in my
car”? No? – Roxy Music. But I was unsure as to whether it was “Same Old
Scene” or “Oh Yeah”. I went with my second choice and was right to
do so.
We drove round to Dog Club and had a good session.
Attendance was up and everyone seemed to have a good time. Fetching balls,
chasing each other, sharing treats… not a bad way to spend half an hour.
As we drove home I got the Mystery Year competition on
the radio right – when did Davros first appear in Doctor Who? 1975.
We had a cuppa and I counted up the Dog Club money,
and then got ready for the day.
Family came over for the afternoon. We sat in the garden
and it all got progressively more and more vague…
