Finding myself wide awake far earlier than I needed to
be I had a little look at the Internet. I’d had an email last night about a new
puzzle geocache. I solved the puzzle easily enough (despite the glaring spelling/grammatical
mistake) and saw it was up a tree in Dartford. This morning no one had been
out for the First to Find. I *could* have gone chasing but it would have
been quite a long way out of my way, and climbing a tree on my own… I decided
against it.
Whilst I was at it I had a look at Facebook. Nothing
much had changed overnight.
I had a bowl of granola, watched half of an episode of
“Orange is the New Black”, and got myself ready for work.
It was a slow drive up the motorway; yet another lorry
had broken down, and with only two lanes and no hard shoulder, that slowed
everyone. As I crawled towards Maidstone the pundits on the radio were
discussing the proposed pilot’s strike. It was mentioned that the average pilot
earns ninety thousand quid a year. Then the figure of a hundred and eighty
thousand quid a year was mentioned. With such variation (one figure being
double the other) you have to wonder just how much faith you can have in
what you hear on the radio.
There was then a *lot* of talk about the
ongoing cricket matches between England and Australia. It all sounded very
competitive; tickets to watch it started at ninety quid a day. And then some
vicar was wheeled on to do the “Thought for the Day” slot in which he
proposed the radical idea that sport (such as this cricket) should be
fun.
I got to work; I had a busy day. Busy, but not as
stressful as it might have been.
I came home and took the dogs round to the co-op
field. Unlike yesterday the dogs were a delight. They can be *so* good;
if only they try.

boiled up a rather good bit of dinner which we washed down with a bottle of “Isla
Negra”; arguably one of the worst wines I have ever had…
Today was a tad dull…
