I slept for nine hours last night; that was a result.
Mind you I did spend all of yesterday feeling like death warmed up. That’s
night shifts…
I got up and made toast. I scoffed it peering into a
dull Internet. Not a lot was kicking off really. Some left wing crackpots were
posting to Facebook ranting about people canvassing for the Restore UK party
who were wearing some sort of uniform. Some were saying it was a good thing,
some were saying it was illegal, some were likening it to the Brownies… I’ll
just say that nothing has divided the country quite as much as the recent rise
of the nationalists.
As I stared into the Internet so not-so-nice-next-door
came and took our garden waste bin. I popped out to see what was going on. The
bin men had swapped our bins over. We swapped them back; I remarked about how
the bin men never put the bins back properly and she smiled. That’s a step in
the right direction.
Despite the weather forecast I took the dogs out. We
delivered cards then went up to Kings Wood. We got about a quarter of a mile
when the heavens opened. We got about a couple of hundred yards more and I was
soaked to the skin, and the dogs all looked miserable.
We gave up and came home for a warming shower. I made
a cuppa for “er indoors TM” and myself, and
the sun came out.
I spent an hour trying to solve a series of
geo-puzzles that were published this morning. I didn’t solve any.
I amazed myself by Munzing from “rainy”
straight to “alloy” … I couldn’t think of any other word ending in “y”
that had an “a” in it..
I had a look at packing for our holiday… You wouldn’t
believe the amount of pairs of trousers that I found. I was rather twitchy
about getting today’s trousers ready after their earlier soaking, but I’ve got
three pairs packed that I didn’t know I had, and will be wearing a fourth pair
that I had no idea that I had either. How is it possible to be so blissfully
aware of how many pairs of trousers you’ve got
I ordered up some beer for tomorrow, and had another
look at the geo-puzzles. I solved all of them. Well, Gordon told me the answer
to one.
Seeing the rain had stopped I went into the garden. We
did “FEED THE FISH” and I re-potted one of the pond plants which had got
too big for the floating basket and was threatening to topple it.
And then it started raining again.
Once the rain stopped we got most of our luggage
loaded into the car ready for tomorrow, and the holiday started with a KFC
dinner which we scoffed whilst watching an episode of “The Orville”
I’ve (hopefully) figured out where we are going
tomorrow…
I should have an early night as we’ve got an early
start tomorrow.
