Wednesday 5th March 2025

Back home, and pretty much all of Wednesday off die to chores that needed to be run.

Which meant being able to lay in bed until half six, then climb out of bed while Jools had to dash to work to pick up a package.

I stay here, make a coffee and check mails and updates to Flickr and BlueSky, while the sun rises in the east south east, now well along Kingsdown Road the other side of the Dip.

Jools returns, we have another coffee, then are out going to Canterbury to the financial advisor as he relates where plans were towards are life of leisure.

Due to traffic, we go along the A2, then along Thanet Way and down the A290 to Blean and the University.

Another fine, but cool sunny morning, we arrived with ten minutes to spare, and the news was all good.

I mean amazing news.

Nothing so sign yet, just assurances that days of saving were over and instead we should spend, baby, spend.

Our second call was in Folkestone to pick up a mobile phone for me, so we drove down country lanes, instead of gong through the city or going back to Thanet Way.

We arrive, and go for breakfast at a greasy spoon, which comes quick and is good. I mean, its always good.

Then a short walk up the new High Street to Asda where the "3" store was, and I go in and say, I need a phone.

It took an hour to fill in the forms and such, and I ended up leaving with an i phone 16.

On the way back we call into the Battle of Britain Memorial to volunteer for some shifts, that will be sorted when we come back from India.

And back home for a brew as it was now half three. Too late for work to start I think. And anyway, what are they going to do, sack me?

And that was the day, really.

Its now light until half five, birds sang and made merry. I cooked chorizo hash for dinner, and somehow that took the day to seven.

European football in the evening, and late to bed as Liverpool complete a smash n grab in Paris.
