Even though I had a
decent night's sleep I was still up and watching "Family Guy"
a couple of hours earlier than I would like to have been. Mind you
the jollop the doc prescribed for my nose has done some good. I've
only had one squirt and I can feel a difference.
I
had a go at the household accounts (could be better) and also
the astro club's account. And then with"er
indoors TM"
still firmly ensconsed in her pit I popped into town to pay some of
the astro club money into the bank. The bank used to have a decent,
efficient, organised, modern queuing system. Due to popular demand
(!)
it has been replaced by the old-fashioned standing in a line waiting
your turn. I registered my disdain for this nonsense with the
"customer
service representative".
She wasn't interested.
I got some Belgian buns
for lunch from Greggs, and then went round to the milk shake shop. I
had a bakewell tart milk shake. I watched them make it from two
bakewell tarts, milk and ice cream. How cool was that !!
With buns scoffed I was
then off to sax practice. Teacher seems pleased with progress so far;
this week I have "Z-Cars" and "Last of the
Summer Wine" to master. "Z-Cars" is
reasonably straight-forward, but "Last of the Summer Wine"
is rather tricky; there's slurs, flats and all sorts of musical
wotsits to accommodate.
I came home and fell
asleep. Lisa and Earle woke me when they came round, and together
with "er indoors TM" and "Furry
Face TM" we went to a rather obscure
country lane near Canterbury where we hid a geocache. Several yards
underground and a couple of dozen yards into a tunnel which allows a
small river to flow under a hill. The water was only ankle deep, but
it was a tad cold.
And with caches hidden we
came home via the Artichoke in Chartham where we (I) had a
couple of pints of Shepherd Neame's finest.
After a rather good bit
of tea "er indoors TM" set off to
film night. I ironed some shirts and dozed in front of the telly. I
wasn't feeling especially well. I hope I'm not going down with a
bug...
