I really am too!
But only for one night. They are busy here in the hostel place where I’m staying and someone want a room for a fortnight. They can do that for all of except one night – which is tomorrow – so they have asked me if I wouldn’t mind moving for one night. They’ve found me another place to stay for the night with facilities that are better than here apparently, and are providing the taxi to transport me there.
It’s a bit inconvenient but I need to keep a bit of goodwill in this place in case I need to extend my stay, and it’s not as if it’s going to be of earth-shattering importance to me. I’ve had worse, of course.
So last night, I had a really good sleep. I was up a couple of times of course, but it was 07:20 when I awoke. Somehow I’d missed the 07:00 cacophony and the early-morning clatter in the kitchen and I was pleased about that.
I’d been on my travels too. Not that I can remember too much about it, but I do remember standing on a rocky outcrop looking way down at a hairpin bend on a road right by a reservoir, and noticing that the steepness of the road was something of an optical illusion.
I’ve been on the blog again today although not very enthusiastically, it has to be said, and I’ve had a very lengthy chat with Liz on the internet. Apart from that, I’ve not done very much at all.
For tea, I cooked pasta, ratatouille (out of a tin) and mushrooms (ditto) and the smell was so enticing that it enticed a couple of girls out of the bedroom above the kitchen. There’s a music festival here this weekend, hence the place is really busy.
I’ll have an early night tonight and then pack up for moving. I can leave most of my stuff here in the storeroom while I go, seeing as it’s only for just one night. But this severe head-cold has now developed into a raging, streaming head-cold and it’s most uncomfortable.
I’m not having much luck right now, am I?
