Good news and bad news…

What a fabulous sunny warm day! I did not believe the weather app, which forecast torrential rain in the afternoon. It didn’t seem possible. In fact, it was still sunny at midday, but the dark clouds swept in and brought heavy rain later, from about 4pm. JR had gone out and got fairly soaked on the way home, the umbrella being not much use really.

It was lovely when Archie and I went out in the morning. JR also took him out after lunch. I popped in to Toast - had a tea and a croissant and sat and enjoyed the views and the quiet, groovy instrumental jazz. I wish all hostelries did this.

Had some good news re the ‘World Wide’ travel insurance that doesn’t cover Hong Kong and Bangkok, our start and finish destinations of the cruise. They gave us a full refund! Now I have to find another one… and insurance companies are not exactly falling over themselves to insure anyone who’s had a heart attack…

Archie is back in his cone. He’s had a good old licking session during the night and his wound is looking pink and tender again! Naughty boy.
