I&#8217;m back in the hospital next week and as I type this I realise that I forgot to pick up my rail tickets yesterday. And so that shall mean another walk out there on Tuesday. Don&#8217;t let me forget.<\/p>\n<p>But as for this morning, what can I say? I had a reasonably early night, was asleep almost straight away and the first thing that I remember after that was the alarm going off at 06:20. The second thing that I remember was the second alarm going off at 06:30. Yes. Dead to the world I was ll night.<\/p>\n<p>And so I was totally surprised to find myself drifting off to sleep as it approached midday. <\/p>\n<p>And even more surprised to find myself asleep round about 15:00 or so. I&#8217;m definitely struggling with all of this, aren&#8217;t I?<\/p>\n<p>But apart from that, I&#8217;ve taken some of the rubbish &#8211; the plastic bottles, the glass jars and the old tetrapaks &#8211; out to the rubbish bin. But that&#8217;s my lot. Anyone would think that it&#8217;s Sunday here today, wouldn&#8217;t they?<\/p>\n<p>We had the usual walks and, just for a change, the rain stopped as I set foot outside. Usually it lies in wait for me as you all know. <\/p>\n<p>The afternoon walk in particular was something of a struggle seeing as I&#8217;d only just awoken.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1803\/1803016.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1803\/1803016.jpg\" alt=\"cancale brittany granville manche normandy france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>But it was worth the long crawl out to the headland at the Pointe du Roc because we are having more of these weird atmospheric conditions that I mentioned the other day. <\/p>\n<p>Over there in this photo across the bay (taken without the telephoto lens) you can see where Cancale is situated. That&#8217;s 18 miles away according to that legendary hotel booking site, and it&#8217;s as clear as day today, with the headland over there having the effect of hovering above the water. <\/p>\n<p>A nice weird, eerie photograph.<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>Tea was a home-made vegan burger in a bap with (properly cooked) potatoes, peas and carrots, with mustard and vegan margarine. Delicious it was too. But that was the last of the home-made vegan burgers so I&#8217;ll be doing some research on the internet to see if I can find a decent recipe.<\/p>\n<p>And now, it&#8217;s bed-time. Another early night and hopefully another good sleep. It&#8217;s shopping tomorrow. <\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-10271 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='10271' data-nonce='3baa2c7052' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-10271 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-10271 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='10271' data-nonce='3baa2c7052' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-10271 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-10271 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; week go quickly?
