January 1st Tuesday
Packed til New Year arrived last night, then headed to bed. This took a while because I couldn't find my pyjama pants. I knew I'd sorted out the clean washing and put the set I was taking in my box and the other set I'd wear that night , I thought in my bedroom. Well I could find the top but no bottom, Back to the lounge to check my travelling box - no... Put them way with the other washing...no. Back in the laundry with the ironing( it can stay there til we come back.) Still no.. bugger this.. go and get another pyjama bottom head for the bathroom... as I when in I looked down and started to laugh.. you guessed I already had them on. I remembered then, when trying on my spare Morris pants I'd put them on then after. Well it was after 12. I hope the rest of this new year is not going to follow this pattern.
Woke early as wasn't sure when we'd be leaving and I still had lunch to make and the ham to pack up. Nothing from Lis, So about 9 tried ringing, Still nothing.. sent a text and waited. Eventually got a reply, we're not likely to be going til late afternoon.
Oh well had every thing ready.
Whiled the time away until they finally came about 8:45pm.. locked up and we were away. we headed to Hunterville's little stop over area and with the last of the suns rays set up an over night camp. Draw back was the lack of a loo and few bushes. I think a jog to the BP station in the morning.. I wanted to buy some more peppermints and the coffee is good. Oops I have the wrong town. It's going to be a long wait till 8 tomorrow morning.
Had tea and I'm reclining in my chair bed, great for doing this and I'm short enough that I can put my head back and rest it on the back. Big question is is the weight worth the luxury of taking it on the bike to England..???
