What a relaxing day,

No kids & the house & farm to myself.

Didn't get up til 0900, longest lie-in since I arrived.

Helped weigh cattle this morning.

Walked Don, played with Chum.

Finished my book, sitting in the sun.

Fed the neddies & that's about it.

Just back from roast chicken dinner at Mal's.

I think he felt sorry for me, being here alone.

I didn't like to tell him I was relishing the idea.

After dinner we watched 'Bargain Hunt' with David Dickinson
which felt surreal.

Very calming drive back through a bitterly cold night (1c)

The moon was full & hanging low over a completely black Pacific Ocean.

Another one of those 'Look at that' moments.

Nighty-night UK,
