I am home from being away for the weekend. A weekend away was just what I needed, it was lovely to see some old friends.

My journey back, however, was rather horrible, I had just left the place I was staying when I started to get stomach pains. I managed until I got to Birmingham when I started to get diarrhoea.

For the rest of the journey I was in the train loo every half an hour. Even today I am still not quite well - I think it is a 48 hour bug. I feel a bit dizzy and not quite the ticket.

The cats seem vaguely happy to see me back, but have retreated to my bedroom. For the very first time last night they were both on my bed without handbags at dawn breaking out. Perhaps they felt sorry for me.

Edited to add: while I was away, Storm Amy brought my back fence down. This is the second time my fence has come down in North Wales winds. My insurance does not cover fences, hedges or gates, so I have to find funds to put the fence back up. I have no idea where that is going to come from.
