Early
Much to my annoyance I woke up earlier than the alarm. The alarm had been set to go off earlier as I was meeting the Captain and the Long-Distance-Lady a little earlier on the beach. The work early featured far too heavily for my liking.
Swim
The water was gloriously calm this morning and the tide was going out so I knew that going up would be slower than coming back. There was very little wind so that wouldn’t hamper me. The water was that nice swimming temperature, cold when I got in but once I’d warmed up, tolerable. Every now and then I would hit a chilly spot of cold water but that was balanced by the warm patches. I swam to the far jetty, I’d not been there for quite a while, had a chat with a couple of wetsuited swimmers who were just getting in and then swam back. I spent most of the swim in a world of my own. It was a very pleasant place to be
Café
We all met up in the club afterwards for warm drinks and bacon rolls. Since the chef has started the bacon role come with a slice of plastic cheese. We all have to remember to order the roll without cheese. This morning the Long-Distance-Lady forgot. We then had a long and detailed discussion about why cheese does not belong on a bacon and egg roll.
Ride
We did have a dinner appointment but that was cancelled. We decided that we would go out for Sunday Lunch anyway. As it was a nice day, we felt that a ride by the river would be perfect way to to work up a hunger. We got on the bikes and took a slow ride down to the brewery.
Brewery
I’d been meaning to visit the brewery for a while but since I found out that they were attached to a Mexican restaurant the meaning became imperative. It tuned out to be a nice little bar with a very large range of beers. As we were cycling, I felt that it was best not to drink too much. I started with a session ale to wash down a pulled pork taco and then moved onto a very strong milk stout and a plate of potato things and guacamole. Loved One had a very small glass of beer. I didn’t know that glasses came that small.
Nap
We wobbled home slowly, weighed down with beer and food. I knew that I would be having a nap the moment I got home.
Gardening
Yesterday, we bought some more seedlings to feed to the slugs. Once I’d re-joined the world Loved One insisted that we planted the seedlings. I could almost hear the slugs putting on their napkins ready for dinner.
Calls
I returned indoors just in time to take the weekly video call form my parents. As usual, the call lasted almost exactly thirty minutes.
Tired
We finished the evening falling asleep on the sofa listening to music whilst dressed in dressing gowns. It had been a long day
