Will this luxury and indolence ever end?<\/p>\n<p>Mind you, I nearly didn&#8217;t because I was on my travels again last night &#8211; quite early too, and it was such a nightmare that I sat up bolt-upright and couldn&#8217;t go to sleep for ages afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>It concerned a young man who had a harem, if that&#8217;s the word, of women aged from about 15 to their 20s. Five of them, there were. And he treated them cruelly &#8211; a real sadist who used to do things like connect them up to electric currents and all of that kind of thing. Totally horrendous stuff. I didn&#8217;t know why they stuck it but they did, for reasons known only to themselves. But it was decided after a while to raid this place, free these women and do something about the young man in charge. And so we did. We forced our way into the property and managed to secure these five women. But the man was nowhere to be seen. We questioned these women intently about it and eventually the younger one cracked and said that he was in the back room with &#8220;the woman he took from the car&#8221;. It seemed that a woman aged about 25 had been abducted a few days ago. Now we knew where she was. We had to smash down the door into this back room and when we did, we saw that it was like some kind of gruesome operating theatre. I knew, even in my dream, exactly what I was going to see and I did see it too. And if I were to describe it to you it would put you off your tea for a week.<br \/>\nIronically, as this dream progressed, it was very much like <em>d\u00e9j\u00e0-vu<\/em>. I knew in my dream exactly what the next steps were going to be as if my subconscious had dreamt it before and knew in my dream that I had dreamt it before (if that makes any sense).<\/p>\n<p>It shocked me to my senses &#8211; such as they are &#8211; for a while anyway.<\/p>\n<p>After breakfast I strolled down to the <em>magasin de presse<\/em> for my <em>baguette<\/em> and then spent the rest of the morning working on upgrading the blog. That&#8217;s coming along nicely now.<\/p>\n<p>At lunchtime I took my butties and my book and went to sit on the wall overlooking the harbour for a while in the sunshine; And beautiful it was too. When I felt the urge I went for a walk around to see if I could find the bus stop for the local bus that passes near here, and sure enough, there it is. It&#8217;s not as convenient as it might be, with this block of buildings situated right in between two stops. So either way, I have a 5-minute walk with my big suitcase. Still, it&#8217;s much more accessible than the Auvergne where going anywhere involves native bearers, three months supplies and a couple of hunting parties.<\/p>\n<p>This afternoon I didn&#8217;t do a lot and ended up speaking for hours on the phone to Ingrid. It&#8217;s nice to hear her dulcet tones again. <\/p>\n<p>And as I type this, I can smell the smell of the pizza cooking in the oven and it&#8217;s overwhelmingly delicious. It will be a good tea tonight.<\/p>\n<p>And tomorrow I&#8217;ll be going on a major expedition myself into town. I&#8217;ll have to rest up properly this evening.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-8011 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='8011' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' 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-8011 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-8011 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='8011' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' 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-8011 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-8011 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And so I had a lie in &#8211; until all of 08:05!
