And then I drove Jos\u00e9e to the station for her train.<\/p>\n<p>Back here, I made myself a couple of sandwiches for lunch and then I did the obvious thing. I crashed out. I need to catch up on my beauty sleep somehow.<\/p>\n<p>As far as work today has gone, I haven&#8217;t done any. It IS a Sunday, after all. Instead, I&#8217;ve loitered around for pretty much all of the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Tea was a vegan pizza of course, and it was another really good one.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1810\/1810137.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1810\/1810137.jpg\" alt=\"college andre malraux place d'armes vieille ville old town by night granville manche normandy france\" height=\"204\" width=\"300\"><\/a>My evening walk was around the headland of course.
