Day 127 - Day of Rest

After 4 days of solid golf, today was time for a break...and to catch up on some of the many admin duties that are building up in my study.

One of my jobs was to make dinner tonight.. which turned out to be a problem!  We have an electrician coming in to install a new induction hob on Thursday and had therefore arranged for the existing gas hob to be taken out one day earlier. Then he called at 09:45 this morning saying that he was in the area and could he come by immediately. Which he did. And now we have no hob which makes cooking dinner more of a challenge...across to a combo of Steamer, Oven and Microwave!

Another of the things I wanted to do was to cut the grass. The lawn mower though was out of petrol, so I had to run down to the local Esso garage to fill up the small plastic container that we have for that purpose.  Unsurprisingly, it was the first time that I had been to a petrol station in the Tesla..and also the first time that my petrol bill has ever come to the princely sum of £3.69!

A dental check up (all clear..) and then back home to watch the final act of the England-NZ cricket series of the early summer: the Twenty20 at Old Trafford. And what good fun it was too: England seem to have uncorked a genie from a bottle this summer... I wonder whether or not it will continue to grant their wishes against the Auld Enemy over the summer....
