Woke up and thankfully it had stopped raining but there was quite a bit of flooding around Taunton, with many of the roads closed and not passable. We had a nice brunch, then got ready to do a few chores.
Then we had a nice lunch at Sheppy's, for a coffee & a cannoli, and shared a chicken gyros, which was really nice.
Back to work in a wet & windy Taunton.
We finished off the soup when my wife came home after work, then I was online for the University.
The weekend and I was up as normal, doing some work. We had some frozen / defrosted croissants for brunch.
In the evening I did some bits & pieces, so we could have some chicken wraps, which was tasty.
Another wet awful day. I made awful scrambled eggs for brunch, I mist make them properly next time or leave it to my wife.
Woke up feeling so much better.
Did some work and got some new clippers, so had a haircut and a nice shower, so I felt even better.
Woke up very very early and felt awful, quite ill.
Tried doing a bit of work but spent most of the day laying on the couch, relaxing. Hardly ate a thing, so on the plus side, it helped my diet.
Had a nice brunch and did some work.
We had pizza in the evening.
I didn't feel great in the night :-(
Still got my cold, did some work in the morning, then took my dad to the eye clinic in the afternoon.
Home and finished off the sausage pasta.
Then online for the Uni session.
The weekend and time to relax, still full of a cold. We had a nice brunch.
Day five at Preston. with a quick breakfast at the hotel before checking out and doing the last day at the University.
The students agreed to shortened breaks, so I was able to be on the road on my way home nice and early but was confused that the satnav was saying it would take me 5hrs to get home, and then say that the M6 was closed for 3 junctions, involving a detour thru some country lanes and small northern villages.
I managed to get home in just over 41/2hrs but it was absolute pouring with rain in Taunton.
Got home and collapsed and had some fish & chips for dinner.
Day four in Preston and I’m still full of a cold, had some air fried chicken stuff for dinner, it was ok but again I couldn’t eat it all.
Looking forward to getting home tomorrow.
Day three in Preston, and I woke up full of a cold and feeling awful, I couldn’t even eat my bacon sandwich as didn’t feel like it, but still had to teach all day.
After the lessons I bought some more Beechems & Strepsils, then had a pizza & cheesy chips for dinner but couldn't finish it.
Day two at Preston, and I’m full of a cold, and feel awful, so decided against going to the gym, but luckily I had some Beechems capsules in my bag. In the evening I ordered a curry for dinner but I didn’t eat most of it.
Hopefully I will feel better soon.
Back in Preston, where there was an early morning wake up at the hotel, as the fire alarm went off at 6:45am and they evacuated, admittedly I didn’t evacuate the hotel as it was too early & too cold, and I couldn’t smell any smoke, so I hid in my bed until the alarm went off.
