Ugh! It's Monday and foggy!

Predictably, we couldn't get Gomez in last night, even though we both called and called him. It's only Sophie who has the touch! This morning, when I went downstairs, Keith said he'd shot in and disappeared upstairs to Sophie's bedroom for an all-day snooze.

I had set my alarm for 6:30am, and the half hour until I had to shower went by very quickly. I miss my usual alarm clock! I'd had a vivid dream about our neighbours who have been in Australia for the last ten weeks. They are due home tomorrow, and the time has whizzed by! I remember saying to them when they left that Christmas would almost be upon us, and it is! How has the time gone so quickly?!

I set off in thick fog to work and hoped for a good day. This was thwarted somewhat by Liam's boss taking up residence in the office, but he was ousted by Daphne when she arrived. That office downstairs - the dungeon - really needs finishing so they can go there!

We had the usual bangs and hammerings today as the builders carried on working. I managed to get a lot done, but our office was cold today, and both  Daphne and I felt it on our legs for some reason. The outside temperatures were low, and the greyness never lifted all day despite being promised sunshine this afternoon!

When I got home, Gomez, who had been in all day, went out, so I doubted we'd get him in again tonight! Keith and I cooked the gammon we should have had last night, and ended our evening with Only Connect and University Challenge. We had a quick FaceTime call with Sophie, and then it was time for bed!
