Back to normal

I was up soon after seven. We had slept well, other than the 4 or 5 arias from Jasper dispersed across the night. 

Diane spent much of the day clearing the laundry from the last couple of weeks. The washing machine isn't quite sure what hit it.

I got on with some admin, the most significant item being the update and review of our accounts for the last few weeks. After that, I had to rest the TV, which hadn't been working properly. In the end, this was solved by replacing an Ethernet cable, which had evidently been giving errors. I also remembered to order some more coffee from Nespresso, as we are getting dangerously low. I spent some time looking for my next audiobook. Though I had several in my Wishlist, I chose "The Critic" by Peter May. I had enjoyed the first book so much that this one seemed like a good choice.

Now that I had a new book, there was no excuse not to go for a walk. I donned my leather jacket and set out into the stiff breeze. It was so nice to be able to walk at my own pace and not have to keep stopping because some walrus had got stuck in a narrow alley or whatever.

The afternoon saw some Kindle time and some time with AI discussing cruise options for the future. This is something that I will refine over time, but the research that has been done so far seems impressive. I forwarded a copy to Trevor.
