My reward

I have hot footed it to the hotel bar this evening, ignoring for now the luxurious delights of my free room upgrade (a cursory glance has registered an additional table and two chairs). I have proper earnt this today, some challenging conversations required some fast talking on my part. And I ignored a vaguely itching eye all afternoon only to discover it is now brilliant red and watery.

It is a beautiful evening. Everywhere except this particular pub garden built in plenty shade where it is distinctly chilly. I sound moany I know, I really am not. Just relieved today is over!
