Starting Grid

 I was up earlier than necessary, but I was wide awake and getting fidgety, and I didn't want to disturb Diane. I sat in the kitchen with a coffee and wrote yesterday's blog post before starting on the overnight news. I then made my to-do list for the day. With a trip planned, I wanted to ensure that I had thought of everything and that everything was in hand.

I checked in for our flights, checked the route to the car park at Southampton Airport, and worked out our timings for an early start. Then, after breakfast, I started to pack and trim, i.e. select items of clothing, then decided against half the items I had selected.

There were several further items on the list, and I worked through these during the morning. I then headed out for my walk, with a detour to the post box en route. The rest of the day was spent refining the packing and then catching up on Kindle time.

We're set.
