First primrose spotted. Plane to Chambery. 1 hr 20 mins. Resolved on email free half term but unable to resist one, last check while in check-in queue with many anorak families carrying skis to check em one last time. They did not disappoint. One from Loony tenants, fulminating and throwing toys out of cot words practically sizzling off page. My kind lawyer to whom I forwarded it (who clearly works weekends) sent a “there there ” pacifying type email .
Once in Chambery took my moon boots out of small case and put away my pumps. Pulled on moon boots rather gingerly. 10 years since last worn and had resided in attic of our former home. Wondered if I might feel a dead mouse up near the toe …Fortunately not Robert Dyas vacuum pack had done its work.
