I've just been reading the FAQs about tomorrow night's hotel (a Premier Inn Hub) - it doesn't have a kettle in the room What am I going to do without my morning cuppa? Apparently there is free tea & coffee available in the breakfast area, but I'm not going to go down there in my smalls to get one to take back to bed with me.

Take a flask?

Can I suggest that this suggestion might get @Jenkins arrested if he goes for coffee with a flask in his smalls?

I was wondering if Ineos were trying to maintain a low profile in the Vuelta as they seem to be succeeding!

Evening cuppa went down well

I'm sore, I'm tired & I'm hungry

at least I'm not pissed off

Have you detected that I get a bit stroppy when I'm having a day with the fairies?

Well all we see is what they left in your place when you went with faeries.

It's been a humid and overcast day here chez Casa Reynard, with a few showers this afternoon.

Slept well, but still feel really awful. As a result, I've done very little today other than the very basics. Feed the cat, clean the tray, that sort of stuff. I hate being unwell.

So pleased I turned down an offer of going to the Wyvern cat club show on Saturday. I'd be struggling to steward, never mind driving to and from Solihull.

Just going to have a nice quiet evening.

...Last hotel I stayed at there was a kettle but no tea, coffee, milk, etc. So if @Jenkins wants to add a stop in Acle, there's a kettle going spare there. And here, come to think of it.

I always take a couple of Taylors coffee bags and a sachet of Options hot chocolate with me due to the poor in room offerings in most of the Travelodge/Ibis/Premier Inn/Holiday Inns that I use.

Wise. I should maybe keep a stash of decent teabags in the car for such occasions emergencies. (Tea is my favourite kickstarter in the morning.)

A quiet evening has been had, mostly spent fighting off the need for a quick snooze while digesting the bacon rolls I had for tea.

In other news I've just found out that on the way home on Friday when I get the Northern Line from Camden Town to Moorgate, I can then access the mainline Liverpool Street station via a walkway tunnel from Moorgate to the Elizabeth Line station at Liverpool Street.

The weather for my Islay trip looks "interesting." Friday morning when I'm supposed to be sailing is very bad according to the forecast, and I've had a text message from the ferry company saying they are monitoring it and will make a decision tomorrow.

I have a glass of Lagavulin in my hand, on your behalf, just in case you can’t get there

Checking the forecast for Port Ellen on three different weather websites is probably overthinking...

I've just watched the "Lost Babies" documentary on BBC2.

Owwww, that was a tough one.

I used to go to school near Moorgate (City of London). We used to carol sing at Liverpool Street station BITD.
