Ended up taking yesterday evening off (except for two hours of driving all over town only to find out there is no heavy-duty stabiliser in town to be had for love or money) and going to sleep early. It was really nice. Except for the 6am greyhound, which was not so nice.

The weather even seems to be behaving itself today. Lately it’s been so windy that I really couldn’t go anywhere with Katherine. Fishing a flying child out of a tree is one thing, catching a plane to Ireland to retrieve her is quite another. So it’s down to normal levels of breeziness around Torbay today, which means I might just get her out for a wander. There have even been flashes of sunlight here and there. Very odd.

Anyway, back to work….
