In the valley

I felt like I needed to take some ‘me time’ today after not sleeping well, so didn’t work this morning. I wrote, and I went to the gym (super tough session). Then I had enough renewed energy to finish up a few work things and check in with colleagues.

This evening I drove to a rural part of the island to meet Deb for a catch up. I find these ‘inner’ areas so dark and creepy at night. This pub is like a beacon in a dark wooded valley, all on its own. It was cosy inside.

Afterwards getting back to St Helier took minutes so it’s not that far at all, but there is an illusion of being in the depths of remote countryside! Maybe it’s because we used to drive round the extensive network of dark lanes as teenagers, telling each other ghost stories!
