What a day!

16/06/2009 by Aileen.

I woke at 5am and John was awake, so we decided to have breakfast. I promptly fell asleep again and woke around 7am. I surfed the net, then heard that it would rain later, so cut the grass. All four bits. Then I carried on washing carpets with the carpet cleaner thingy. Back to gardening, when I remembered the camera I had bought off someone on Bird Guides. The owner was going to let me know when my cheque had cleared. Well, there was the message, posted in the morning and it was now mid afternoon. I really wanted the camera for tomorrow’s birding as it had a 400m prime lens. So I agreed to collect it straight away. It was a two hour drive away, and John wasn’t keen on my driving there and back on my own, so he came with me. We stopped for fish and chips on the way home, and now I’m quite weary. But I want to check I know where all the controls are, as it’s a Canon and I’m used to Nikon. It feels good to hold, but the push button is about an inch out compared to the Nikon. I’m really thirsty after the fish and chips, so think I’ll have a second cup of tea and collect everything for tomorrow. Then I should sleep the sleep of the just!
