I am, to be fair, exhausted


I always go on about wanting to have an Eternal Summer, about wanting to move somewhere with temperatures permanently in the twenties and sunshine blazing down 350 days a year. But if the past 72 hours have taught me anything, they’ve taught me this - the Summer lifestyle is one I cannot maintain!
I’ve been cycling, walking, surfing and swimming, I’ve had fish and chips twice and a barbecue and I’ve drunk enough wine and lager to drown an alcoholic ox. It’s all been great, and I’ve loved it, but now I need to crawl somewhere dark and preferably cool, where a friendly mermaid will soothe my aching body with natural balms and lotions, and where the only items of sustenance are bread and bottled water.
