I woke on Thursday with a slight headache from the cheep wine, not feeling great i had a relaxing day as usual, ant painted the second coat of the stairs and i did very little, a night of tv then an early night before an early morning, bit of a nothing day.
On Friday we were up at ten to five and on the road by ten past, i had to go in to Lille station with ant to get his ticket and then headed home. I went on line when i got back and chatted to mum on facebook for a while till i lost connection, also started to get in to farmville, it is nice to start at the bottom again as it is not so time consuming as the heady heights of farmtown. I had no plans for the day so decided i would have a tidy round then picked up 'A Town Like Alice', i had started it on the way down to Paris the other day, i was gripped and read all day, i found it quite an emotional experience and was damp eyed for quite a bit of the book, i must have been feeling the loss of ant, any hoo give it a read i highly recommend it, you will know all about outback life and the trials of cattle ranching in the forties, well worth it.
After i had finished the book i started on 'Despised and Rejected' a book we had found in a tiny bookshop in a tiny mountain village in the langue d'oc, which had surprised me as it was a pink press release. It was first published in 1919 and is about homophobic prejudice, so sounds like it will be a ripper!! I got a little way in and lost interest, so made dinner and fed the girls then watched a bit of tv, a brand new simpsons, which is always a treat, then nothing of great interest so i went back online and tried to beat my score on whiteboard tower defense, a highly addictive game on face book. After this i went back to the tv and watched a bit of the movie 'Dodgeball' which was ok but didn't really keep my attention, then i went off to bed and read some more, the book has yet to get interesting but i am hanging on in there for a few more chapters.
