It was a shame that the bin men had to
make quite so much noise as they did their thing at half past six this morning,
but they‘ve been making a racket about it for some years now. I got back to
sleep after they’d been and finally got out of my pit at about nine o’clock.
Pausing only briefly to replace the
blown light bulb I was soon nosing round the Internet. Last night I’d posted on
the local geocaching page about the puzzle based on a grave, and someone had
commented. Bearing in mind I’d posted on the “Kent” page, why was
someone from Shropshire offering an opinion. We’ve now got two Kent-based
Facebook geocaching pages… but when I say “Kent based” I’m rather
confused as to whether they are for Kent people, about the hobby as it happens
in Kent, or just yet another place where people go for a squabble.
There were one or two squabbles on
Facebook today; particularly about how we now have to wear face coverings when
going shopping. I find it rather depressing that the norm is that now any
idiot’s spur-of-the-moment opinion on any given topic is as valid as
that of someone’s with post-graduate qualifications and a lifetime’s experience
on the matter in question.
A friend had posted to Facebook saying how her cat had
clawed and bitten her. I see this from cat owners all the time. If a dog did it
only once they would be put down right away, but with cats it seems to be
expected.
I had a look at my accounts as I do every month. As always
I am far from skint but I would like a lot more money. As always I accounted
for every penny (I’m mean like that), and I found that payments I’d made
to car parks, Munzee HQ, sellers of Lego and Amazon (twice) hadn’t gone
through, leaving me thirty quid better off than I might have been. I shan’t
squander that money just yet, but that car park fee goes back to last year.
Will they ever take it?
We loaded the dogs into the car and went down to Ham
Street. "er indoors TM" is hoping to put a few
geocaches along the Greensand Way between Ham Street and Kingsnorth, but what
with SSSI and one thing and another finding space for them looks like being an
issue. But it made for a good walk for the dogs if nothing else. We only lost Fudge
once.
I took a few photos as we walked; I was
amazed at just how filthy the dogs got. And I forgot to deploy a Munzee too…
But on the plus side I managed to get the name of the local head honcho from
Natural England. I’ve sent him an email about putting out geocaches on SSSI
land. I wonder if he will reply?
"er indoors TM" boiled up a rather
good dinner which we scoffed whilst watching episodes of “Taskmaster”. I
shall program “Hannah” for tomorrow, then I think an early night…
