… where I’ve not been in too much of a hurry to leave my bed.<\/p>\n

I put that down to still being awake at 03:45 this morning, and so getting up at … errr … 10:20 is not too unreasonable.<\/p>\n

I’ve hardly done any work either – well – not that kind of work anyway. The house remains practically untouched. But noticing when I went downstairs that the batteries were aleady fully-charged, and at 12:30 there was 50.5 amps going into the dump load and the wires were pretty warm, that called for action. I plugged an extension cable into the overcharge circuit and wired the 12-volt fridge in. That calmed everything down a little. The water still got hot (68\u00b0C) but the wires stayed cool-ish and the fridge worked. <\/p>\n

I’ll leave it like that until I fix up the new batteries that will replace the existing creaky ones and then I’ll wire in the fridge into the permanent circuit for the summer.<\/p>\n

I threw out some food and veg peelings that I had forgotten to deal with before I left here (some of them could have walked to the compost bin on their own) and then unloaded part of Caliburn. For lunch I went to fetch the bread – to find that the boulanger<\/em> had forgotten to come on Tuesday, and that was really the only reason why I had rushed home.<\/p>\n

I had to go down the road to the Intermarch\u00e9 at Pionsat to buy a baguette.<\/p>\n

GRRRR!<\/p>\n

This afternoon I updated the Trois Rivieres pages of my Canada website
\n<\/a>
\n. I took a pile more photos of the town when I was there last year and so they needed to be added on and the commentary written. I’ve also reviewed a few subsequent pages of my drive down the Chemin du Roy
\n<\/a>
\n and that has spawned a couple of new pages too.<\/p>\n

So I’ve not been idle.<\/p>\n

But I do realise now why I try not to work on the computer between 19:00 and 21:00. I get so carried away with what I’m doing that I forget to make tea and I end up going hungry.<\/p>\n

And it’s 5 years since my dear friend Liz departed. I can’t believe that it’s been so long. I hope that she is sleeping peacefully. My abiding memory is just before she went for her operation, she was making out a list of names.
\n“Are these the people that I need to contact to let them know your news?” I asked.
\n“Ohh no” she replied. “If it all goes wrong, this is a list of the people I’m going to come back to haunt”.<\/p>\n
