I&#8217;ve had some of those things for years.<\/p>\n<p>But at least we now have a cunning plan that revolves around getting the house finished.<\/p>\n<p>I picked up Sam&#8217;s Superdream yesterday, having had its new speedo fitted.<\/p>\n<p>It is a neat little bike, and handled surprisingly well.<\/p>\n<p>I took the ZX10-R out afterwards, but some of the country lanes I chose were full of mud and cowdung.<\/p>\n<p>In the evening we watched Jack Reacher 2 which was alright.<\/p>\n<p>This morning\u00a0Sam and I went swimming; by 08.00 we were ploughing lengths like turbocharged seals.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe she was, I was mostly sitting on the side basking, as seals do.<\/p>\n<p>Later in the morning I went out with Sam (no, another one) for what I thought was going to be a gentle bimble through the lanes of Nottinghamshire.<\/p>\n<p>Just short of a hundred miles later, I was back home, having covered roadmiles from Nottingham to Matlockin Derbyshire, then heavily across country to Clay Cross for a cup of hot chocolate, and then back down to home.<\/p>\n<p>And some of those roadmiles were covered at a fairly rapid rate, because Sam doesn&#8217;t take prisoners on tarmac.<\/p>\n<p>This evening Sam (no, the usual one) and I have watched most of The Woman In Black.<\/p>\n<p>Then she trimmed and oiled my beard.<\/p>\n<p>There was an illicit Chinese takeaway in there somewhere too.<\/p>\n<p>So I haven&#8217;t done much, really, this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Yet I haven&#8217;t shed the feeling of &#8216;worn out-ness&#8217; of last week.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe I need to change things around?<\/p>\n<p>Make some new arrangements in my life?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That was the week(end) that was&#8230;
