Good intentions

Well I got up this morning with so many good intentions but here I am nearly four hours later still sat at this computer. Found there was no bread for my toast so I had to wait until J , who had a doctors appointment came back. Just about to go and get dressed when I got a skype call from our son who is working in Japan. He had just spent a couple of days at home after flying back from a working trip to Kenya and arrived in Japan on Monday. He is finding it a bit strange as no one speaks English but I imagine it could prove interesting especially at meal times!! Have just been looking at the Google map so I can picture what the resort looks like until he gets out at weekend and sends us some photographs. Just ended my call when the phone rang and it was Claire our daughter who lives four doors away. We must really get down to planning our weekend as we are both going down to Weston-Super-Mare this weekend for the Geocaching MEGA event. We are planning to call in at a couple of towns on the way down possibly Cheltenham & Gloucester and are staying at Newport so that will put a few more colours on our map. Three whole days of geocaching, wonder how many we will manage to find. Going out this afternoon to find four new caches so are on target to achieve 2500 on 10th August. Have just managed to download all our FTF's onto our stats and am amazed that we have 72. We do not specifically go out to get these we just seem to have mad bursts and then we can go for months without trying. Anyway I have done enough waffling so five hours later I suppose I had better get on and get some work done.
