That was quite exciting, as was the meal that we had &#8211; a couple of Thai vegan samosas with spicy chili sauce.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Hebden Bridge is a strange place &#8211; so much so that I felt quite out-of-place there as being far too normal for the average run-of the mill inhabitants of the town.<\/p>\n<p>With having no plans until Saturday, Kate offered me another bed for the night in exchange for some work fetching a pile of topsoil and some other gardening stuff for her back garden. That seemed like a good arrangement and so that kept me there until Saturday morning. A pleasant Friday night though, doing some amazing domestic things such as cooking a proper dinner with steamed veg, watching a film on TV, that kind of thing.<\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;m disappointed that I never got to know Kate better when she lived in the Auvergne &#8211;<br \/>&#8220;Kate &#8211; do you have a small rucksack for me to take my camera down to town?&#8221;<br \/>&#8220;ohh &#8211; errrr yes &#8211; well, err, just let me see if I can find it&#8221;. Yes, a girl after my own heart.<\/p>\n<p>Today I went to see Krys and we spent most of the time chatting, and eventually we went out for a meal. It&#8217;s actually the first time that I&#8217;ve ever spent more than 5 minutes in Krys&#8217;s company and we also had a pleasant time.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure now what I&#8217;m doing tomorrow. There are three possibilities but no-one has got back to me yet. We&#8217;ll have to see what the day unfolds.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-56 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='56' data-nonce='cc010bf9d7' 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-56 lc'>+1<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-56 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='56' data-nonce='cc010bf9d7' 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-56 unlc'>-4<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-56 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; and people have been missing me so it seems, which is very nice of them.
