In bed not too late, not too early, and I slept all the way through until the alarm. And it&#8217;s been a while since that has happened.<\/p>\n<p>We had all of the usual procedure, including fresh coffee (which tasted disgusting) and then, at long last, probably 12 years in fact, I sat down at my desk and did some work.<\/p>\n<p>All the way right through until, would you believe, 17:00 when I reckoned that it might be a good idea to have some more food.<\/p>\n<p>No hummus as I said yesterday, and so I sat down and made some. And it&#8217;s wicked too. A pile of chick peas, some tahini, some olive oil, some chick pea liquid, a big pile of garlic, some olives, some tomato, basil, oregano, tarragon and black pepper. All of it whizzed up in the electric whizzer that I bought earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Having tried some on my butties I can safely say that I won&#8217;t ever be bothered by werewolves and vampires. It&#8217;s probably the best that I&#8217;ve ever made. There&#8217;s a container in the fridge and two more in the freezer and this will keep me going for a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>And then &#8211; back to work. It&#8217;s really good having a proper place to work and it&#8217;s about time too. <\/p>\n<p>I did actually make it outside &#8211; round about 21:45 &#8211; for a walk in the dusk. Crowds of people still about even though it&#8217;s gone quite cool. Clearly some people don&#8217;t have enough to do.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I&#8217;m going back to my desk and carrying on. And quite right too. There&#8217;s plenty to do.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-10902 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='10902' data-nonce='836fea0f89' 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-10902 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-10902 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='10902' data-nonce='836fea0f89' 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-10902 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-10902 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; of a webhost at the moment (upgrades always happen at the most inconvenient times and take longer than planned), I shall be making notes, and posting them up when normal service is resumed, whenever that might be.
