Mornings are for lie ins, I wish

It is nice to think of Saturday mornings as lazy times for lying in bed with coffee brought by grateful loving childer.


The truth might be a small distance away from that. Something woke me at 2 am and I did not realise the time till I looked at the BBC website and Facebook. Management managed to slumber on till 8 am and woke then thinking it was at least 10 in the morning.

Both of us spent the night struggling with 3 cats each of whoom thought the bed was theirs especially Deimund who is usually found under the Duvet trying to tunnel his way between myself and the student.

Taliesin got up and, noticing the stove was not actually melting has been feeding it firewood so, having closed our bedroom door to exclude the cats; (who went downstairs hearing breakfast dishes and thinking: "food") is slowly basting us alive.  

We were promised terrible storms today so far it's flat calm and the management thinks we might be able to cut wood after all.

Oh Joy....
