Still a bit spacey with whateber infection lurking within; but eventually made it out to meet Her. 

Dropped hoover and off into the gloom we didst go. For a soggy lap of Let's Ride and then to look at beds for the teenager. A friend had sent her a photo of a bed which she insisted she must have; never seen it, never tried it, no idea of dimensions or colour options, but she HAD to have it or her life would not be worth living.
So a fact finding mission was required. Then the supermarket and back up the hill again in the gloom / drizzle. 

A roast chicken dinner was put on ahead of the prodigal son returning from his week in Zante and peace ensued as much as it can do.

I was so tired I was asleep on the sofa by 7.30, partly awaiting the easing of rain, partly just exhausted. Eventually I gave up on the rain abatement and got a bus home; 23 but with 12 minutes to walk in the deluge I still got soaked.
