Day off and Glimmer 9 from yesterday, the bike shed.
First day off and Glimmer 4. Chase up to to the laundrette and sit there for a while reading, listening to tunes and generally chilling. Back home, nip out for a bit to get some shopping and a subway. Grab a bit of a kip and then meet C off the bus. Nip to the lickers and wait on the bonus slip fury. Mine is positive so that’s cool. Geoff comes in we buy him a drink. Nip to the bank for C. Home and a quick curry for R, S and myself and a chicken salad for herself.
A playful day off. First up a wee lie in, then a trip to Wigan to fetch the bike and pop the council tax dosh into the bank. Clearly the Nationwide has only recently reopened because I score a free tote bag. Turns out useful because I’ve not dressed for the cycle and it goes onto the back rack with the lock in it. Prior to that though breakfast at the Station Cafe.
First day off and I’ve big plans for the day, lots of tidying up but a wee kip. Rudely interrupted by a call from herself, she’s had an asthma attack so it’s onto the bus for me to fetch her from school. Totally changes the nature of the day. Slip into carer mode. Nip for a pint. As I’m in the pub Ash asks for bonus slips. Something is up.
Day off and Elsie goes to the Vets for her jabs. Given a lift by Steven and Ryan. Cat behaves well, jabs go well. Struggle with tiredness, Elsie and I repair to bed.
Day one off after a hard week and I’m knackered. Up late, brekkie at the Tom and Gerry (Miner’s Benedict). Then away to the Chemist’s to fetch the meds for the pair of us.
Friday and I’m given a list. But first its time to sort the panniers on the bike in daylight. Discover I’d put them on back to front. Relatively easy to sort. Pop in the bike locks and job’s a good’un.
Friday, day off, get to spend it with half term bound C. A bit of a mooch round the shops. Lunch in the Gobin. Relief to have a bit of a lie in, lates are really taking it out of me.
Day off
