I slept better than last night – the duvet-sucking dog (I
think it was Pogo this time) didn’t start noisily slurping until nearly
getting-up time.
I made toast and peered into the internet.to see what had
happened overnight. The new series of geocaches that went live yesterday
evening had all been found. Some of them in the dark. Personally I like a
pleasant walk in the countryside enjoying the views. Others like to dash from
one film pot under a rock to the next at breakneck speed, actually risking
breaking their necks in the dark. Each to their own, I suppose.
I saw that some of my geocaches that I archived last
October had been found yesterday – a nice trick if you can do it(!) I
sent out some birthday wishes, then "er indoors TM"
and I took the dogs down to Ham Street to put the final touches to the last bit
of the planning for the ongoing Greensand Way geo-project.
As we crossed the footbridge at Ham Street railway station
some people who looked incredibly familiar waved to me from the opposite
platform. There were two people there; both smiled. I couldn’t hear what they
were saying. I hope they don’t think I was being rude. I’m sure I know them,
but I didn’t recognise them at all.
We had a good walk through the woods. The dogs didn’t disappear
for that long really. Pogo did start shouting at a passing dog (I think that
was a “lead” thing) and Fudge did try to play “dog piggy back” with
a Labrador ten times his size, but other than that, the walk went well.
Once home I popped to the corner shop for a sandwich for
later and croissants for brekkie. This was the first time out for my now-legally-compulsory
face covering.
What a shambles.
I had mine on. The other people in the shop had theirs
hanging from their ears and covering all sorts of parts of their anatomies
except those through which they breathe. And the woman behind the counter
didn’t have one on at all.
We had coffee and croissants, and I carried on
geo-jigsaw-puzzling. I spent an hour and a half on it last night, and another
two hours this morning. I hope the film pot I shall find under a rock will be
worth it.
And that was it for today really. I went to work, did my
bit and came home again…
Today was rather dull…
