mosquito

I've always resonated with the saying "if you think you're too small to make a difference, you've never spent a night with a mosquito". Usually it inspires me to continue to make my small impact. Last night it struck a chord for different reasons and today I have more bites than I care to count, cos if I don't focus on them they don't itch as much.
Today's rain looks set in so we might postpone our cycle ride to the Netherlands. We'll see, the forecast on other days hasn't proved accurate. I'm a third of the way through my thickest book so could cheerfully stay here reading and scoffing chocolate. We stocked up in aldi yesterday - so pleased to finally locate that as its prices are for more acceptable than those in Carrefour. So we don't need to go hunter gathering. Will see what the others want to do when they surface.

I got to read, eat choc, AND then go for a 13 mile wet but joyous cycle ride. I love cycling here, almost effortless (unless on sand, obviously) as its so flat and cyclists have right of way and gorgeous cycle lanes :-)
