Logos

Slept well but woke early, and so hid under the covers reading the papers etc on my iPad so as not to wake AR who I was sharing the room with. When I popped my head out about an hour later she’d gone…obviously crept up and out of the room not to wake me!
We had a bit of chat over a breakfast of eggy bread to use up the baguette that we didn’t need yesterday, and Mx got dressed in some new clothes he’d got from N&G….he’s just getting into liking sports clothes and logos apparently.
After I’d done a call to JS it was time to set off, and I hit the road. Stopped at K’s in MK to collect the bangle I’d left on my last trip, and drop off her scarf that I’d accidentally taken. She was at Hogshaw Farm with her granddaughters but J was at home and we had a chat about the girls before I set off again. I’d just left there when T called to ask where I was and we discovered we were both just off the motorway in MK so met at Kingston for coffee and a chat. He’d been to the dentist and the wound following his extraction wasn’t infected but she checked it all out and dressed it with some clove oil soaked gauze…he said it was less painful today. Talked over an HR case that he was trying to sort out, and about swapping his van for a car and getting a new shower in his flat. He has a strong group of friends, some even from school, and they all seem to have very useful jobs and skills for when he needs something done!
After that I finally hit the road properly about 12.30 but, unusually, hit quite a lot of traffic and roadworks delays, and then had trouble finding a parking space, so didn’t get into my flat til 8! The satnav had swapped me from the M1 to the M6 at one point as the jams ahead were back, so I’d thought at least I could stop at Tebay services for a pork pie and giant hob nob biscuit (their specialities!) but they didn’t have either! At least I was listening to a good book…The way of all flesh by Ambrose Parry (after I’d seen Winsford seeing the authors….thanks for the idea!).
I watched the final Rivals episode with some tea then went to bed early. Its been a brief but lovely weekend.
