Friday the 13th

Mme B, my  neighbour told me that it was 3 degrees overnight.  I knew it was cold because my face  was so cold it woke me up and I had to hide under the duvet til 10 o'clock when it was warm enough to get up!  Mme B is the first person I have had a real person conversation with for a couple of days but it wasn't a long conversation as she was off to her gym class, not bad for 82.

I went to buy some garden tools and didn't swap much more than the usual pleasantries so I decided to go out for lunch in the hope that I'd have a chat with someone.  Unless you count a superscillious waiter questioning my decision not to have wine with lunch, then the expedition wasn't much of a success.  Despite all weather forecasts, it was sunny when I got home so I did some more branch-burning until it got too cold. I remind myself that I am in a foreign country, living in a caravan and freezing cold for much of the time because I am doing this for my grandchildren, so that they have somewhere lovely to come and stay.  I am not sure I believe myself.

Read the 14 day weather forecast, which is more rain and colder.  Finished the day with a Skype fight with Chris.

Glad to get to bed
