Left Paignton on my way to Newquay. But yesterday's impromptu trip to Dawlish left me without enough charge to get to Penhale (the nearest charger to Newquay) with enough margin for me to feel comfortable.

So I'm at the Tesla Service centre charging the car.

I've been feeling uncharacteristically cold most of the day and have a bit of a sniffle. Just now I got up to have a quick wash before bed and suddenly felt freezing cold. Now I feel a bit flu-ish. Time to finish my Aldi pink gin and turn the television off.

@ninalanyon I hope you are not getting sick. ☹️

@Musicman Had a very restless night and I feel tired and out of sorts this morning. But in fact my runny nose seems to have dried up, so perhaps it is just a mild cold.

@ninalanyon I am sorry you didn't sleep well, but I am glad you are feeling better today. 🙂

@Musicman Such things bother me more than they really warrant because I have been lucky with my health so far. So when I get some minor ailment I toss and turn all night.

Then when I go out I see people who clearly are having a much harder time who nonetheless seem happy. There is a busy footpath outside this bar and in amongst the healthy surfers there is and endless stream of overweight people, people walking with sticks, fat waddling children.

And then I feel a bit of a fraud for feeling down because of a bit of a cold.

How's life with you, isn't it a bit early in the morning?

@ninalanyon Yes it is, but my wife is talking on the phone quite loudly. She doesn't realize how loud she is. In two weeks she is having cancer surgery. She is getting nervous and driving me crazy.

@Musicman I bet it's driving her crazier. I hope it works.

@ninalanyon Thank you very much 😊 The doctor has high hopes. 🙂🙂🙂
