We didn’t get back home from London until almost midnight last night, and by the time we had had baths and got to bed it was closer to 1am, so we feel no guilt at lying in bed until just after 9am this morning. We need to get over to my wife’s workshop in Hevingham today to perform a roofing repair – storm Doris stripped some roofing felt off, and we really need to get it replaced before any more wet weather comes along. We also need to collect the dog – the house doesn’t seem like home without her.
So, we gather up a few tools, load the car and head off to Hevingham.
My device re-programming doesn’t seem too effective at the moment, and I’m getting quite a lot of tremor breaking through on my left side (mainly in my leg). It was breaking through yesterday afternoon as well, but I put that down to being tired – we walked a long way from the railway station to the Chainstore Gym and Parkour Academy on Trinity Buoy Wharf, where Karl Sterling was holding his Parkinson’s Regeneration Training workshop. Perhaps it’s still a problem today because I am exhausted from having such a long day yesterday. I’m tempted to have a fiddle with my device settings, but decide to leave well alone – at least until tomorrow. I’ll self-medicate with some cannabis this evening, and that should enable me to relax a little.
We manage to patch up the roof (my wife does the majority of the work) following an excursion to B&Q in Norwich to buy another roll of roofing felt – we unrolled the roll that we already had, to find out that there was a hole in it!
The dog is pleased to see us and is very keen to get in the car and get back home. When we get back to Southrepps my wife goes for a run while I split some logs and fill the log basket for a fire tonight – it’s not really cold enough to justify it, but we both like to see the flames so we’ll have a fire in any case.
