We didn't have such an early start this morning ...

... that is, if you don't count having to get up for a gipsy's at 07:00. In fact it was after 10:00. And that was strange too. I'd had an exciting dream beforehand, but when I went back to bed at 07:05 and back to sleep I started on another one ( and I can't remember a thing about the first one now even though it was so exciting). But in this second one, I'd been stranded on a pier and had to swim for shore and after giving the girl at the reception desk a piece of my mind about telling me to go on it, and then walking through the town, I suddenly realised that I didn't have my camera with me. I was panicking about this, thinking that I had left it in my car which had now been submerged, and so I remember urging myself to wake up so that I could get back my camera.

And wake up I did - right on cue - and to a gorgeous blue alpine winter's day - the type that I like to have for recharging my batteries after about 10 days of badger all. But that didn't last and by early afternoon we were back snowing again. GRRRRRRR.

But I've sorted out my receipts and paperwork from Canada and done a little more desultory tidying up. And that was that. But then again, it is Sunday and I can have a day off once a week.
