Day 6132 & 6133 (17 & 18/10/2026)

Did some work in the the office in the morning, then the men from Liftt came and fitted our new electric garage door.   

They opened the old garage door, which hadn't been done for well over 15 years. 

It only took them about 90minutes and we were very pleased with it. 

Then in the evening wee ordered an Indian. 

On Sunday I saw my parents for breakfast, then came home to do some work. Then in the early evening I made a nice roast chicken dinner.

It was very tasty. 

Day 6131 (16/10/2026)

I was up early, as the electrician was here to fit some sockets in the garage, which will be handy for the garage door and when I have the garage sorted, and move the freezer in their etc.

At lunchtime went out, to do a few chores. I went to the library to weigh myself and was so very pleased to have reached my next goal, and to have reached a weight I was last at in June 2012. 

Then we bought some things for lunch and dinner, and went home and had a nice sushi. 

In the evening we had some nice fish & chips.  

Day 6130 (15/10/2026)

I felt better in the morning, so we got ready and drove to Cardiff to visit our cousin in hospital, and it was good to see how much she had improved. 

We stopped off at the services on the way back, and had a nice Greggs corn-beef slice, with a coffee and we shared a doughnut.  

Then we drove home, and I didn't really fancy much, so just had some flatbread and dip, whilst my wife made a Chinese for them two. 

Day 6129 (14/10/2026)

I had a better nights sleep, but still didn't feel great during the day, but carried on working. 

Still not eating properly. 

Day 6128 (13/10/2026)

I had had a veery broken nights sleep, with quite a few visits to the toilet. 

I had some work to do but felt awful and run down all day.  

Had some leftover pasta in the evening and maybe started to feel a bit better. 

Day 6127 (12/10/2026)

We had a nice nights sleep at the hotel, and had a nice cup of tea and some pain au chocolat in the room for breakfast.

Then we drove in the rain to Mottisfont, a National Trust property in Hampshire. During the drive I began to feel quite ill, but we still went, and started with lunch, which may have been a mistake, however a tasty one.  

We really should have share our lunch, as it was slightly more than we had bargained for. 

I started to feel more unwell, so as the weather was also awful, we decided to l eave a bit earlier than we would have, and we drove home, via a short re-charge.

Day 6125 & 6126 (10 & 11/10/2026)

Time for a relaxing weekend, well a relaxing Saturday at home, although I did do some work in the morning, and then had a nice brunch.  

In the evening I made a veggie moussaka, not great but not to bad.  

Served with a nice Greek salad and a few dips. 

Sunday we got up fairly early, got ready and then drove off to meet up with Lee for a nice Sunday diner at The Swallows Return, outside of Worthing, which was really lovely. 

We had a lovely evening. 

Then we went off and stayed at a Premier Inn in Portsmouth, which was nice and very handy.
