Wide awake, of course, and that was that.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, I&#8217;d been on my travels too. Out to sea in a small ship again but I&#8217;ve no idea where to.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t wide awake enough to do all that much though. I had a mess around on the laptop but couldn&#8217;t keep the concentration, and I read a book for a while. By 04:00 or thereabouts I was ready to go off to sleep again.<\/p>\n<p>And go on my travels again. This time we were camping &#8211; at one of these steam engine rallies or something like that. We were one of the first to arrive, and we had two tents so we could have had the choice of places. But somehow we had managed to cram ourselves into a tiny corner where there wasn&#8217;t much room to move about. It was then that I realised that I had left my sleeping bag and spare clothes behind, and I&#8217;d also forgotten to bring the spare tent pegs. The plastic ones that we had were not up to doing the job in this soil.<br \/>\nAnd then I moved on to being in a restaurant &#8211; some kind of posh house-type of place. But I just can&#8217;t remember now what was going on there.<\/p>\n<p>09:27 when I awoke (it&#8217;s Sunday so there&#8217;s no alarm of course) but it was &#8230; errr &#8230; nothing like that when I finally crawled out of bed. I missed my bed while I was away &#8230; <em>&#34;you&#8217;ll have to improve your aim&#34; &#8211; ed<\/em> &#8230; and so I made the most of it. <\/p>\n<p>Making muesli was the highlight of the morning, seeing as I had run out, but this fridge is finished. There&#8217;s an issue with the thermostat which means that it switches off, the fridge warms up, the ice melts everywhere, and the thermostat doesn&#8217;t switch back in until it&#8217;s too late. Everything inside the fridge is drenched.<\/p>\n<p>After breakfast I went down into town to see if any of the shops were open. But we are now on winter hours of course so the little supermarket down below was closed. But never mind &#8211; it was a nice walk and did me good.<\/p>\n<p>Just by way of a change, I had a visitor. My neighbour who looks after my keys came to see how I was doing, which was nice. But not so nice seeing as I had everything out and the place was a total tip. Doesn&#8217;t it always happen like this? Still, I gave him and his wife a little present for being so kind.<\/p>\n<p>And that, dear reader, is your lot. I managed to rustle up some food (pasta, veg and tomato sauce) for tea but apart from that I&#8217;ve hardly moved. I should be going for a walk but I&#8217;ll postpone that for today. I had a little walk at lunchtime as you know.<\/p>\n<p>So tomorrow we&#8217;re back in the routine. There&#8217;s an alarm set, and I need to visit the shops for just about everything. I tested Caliburn and he started up, which was useful. It&#8217;s been nearly 9 weeks since he&#8217;s had a run out. A little drive will do him good.<\/p>\n<p>And I&#8217;m going to look for some new stuff too. A fridge, a freezer and a washing machine. High time I organised myself.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-9846 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='9846' data-nonce='9527a85c38' 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-9846 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-9846 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='9846' data-nonce='9527a85c38' 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-9846 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-9846 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; ended with me creeping off to bed at 20:00 or thereabouts for a lie down.
