A non-smoking day
Today's mood: :-)


I have decided I'm not going to make Prague this time. It's turning out to be quite expensive to get there from here by train and even more so by air, so I'll wait a while. I had a long chat with Terri and I'm going to be in Brussels (cos it's closer) whilst Pip is here.

I can't believe how early I had to get up (9.30am!) to drive to Nontron to have my parallélisme done. They seemed to take forever to do it as well, although they were clearly paying attention. The one mechanic (who Brian lusts over) really is quite a nice little French version of Jude Law with blue eyes, dungarees and engine oil. Grrr.

Builders building houses on the way back. They'd clearly expected it to be a nice sunny day as they were all wearing white teeshirts. Unfortunately for them it was raining, so their teeshirts were slightly see-through and clinging to their chests. Ohgodwhyaretheresomanynicemenhere?

I had hoped to go cycling and do fit and healthy things but it was pouring with rain all day (32.9mm since the last count) and I didn't much fancy getting wet. I did lots of bits and bobs around the house though - very domesticated, me.

Chilled in the evening and just did stuff. Nowt exciting.
