Tuesday 24 February.
I got up at 6:30 am and showered while the kettle was boiling for our morning cuppa. We had breakfast an hour later after downloading the newspaper and having a read. Moira filled the thermos flask and made sandwiches for lunch on our trip to Santa Cruz. The special bus was supposed to stop at the hotel on the corner at 8:40am and we were here with time to spare. But it didn't arrive, we stood there for over half an hour then gave up and went back to the flat. Moira phoned the company doing the excursion later and found out that she had an old pamphlet and the trip was now changed to a Thursday. She booked us on the one this week. She also picked up a new flier for the excursions and it confirmed the trip was now on Thursdays.
We spent the morning now on the computer. I wanted to get into my Facebook page but couldn't remember the email address I had used. Moira said that I couldn't have used our normal one as she used it for her account and seemingly you can't use the same email twice. We tried everything we could think of along with various passwords but with no luck. We then decided to open a new email attached to our normal one and open a new Facebook account for me. At last we managed it and I started to put names on as friends from the email address book. This took us until lunch time to complete. I said to Moira that we spend half our time either waiting for a bus or sorting out problems on the computer.
We had lunch and listened to the radio until 2 pm then I headed for the gym. The weather was nice, clear blue sky and warm. I concentrated on my abs and back for over half an hour with sit-ups, leg raises, twists, planks, and body bends. For the next 30 minutes it was squats, legs presses, dumbbell presses on an inclined bench and the shoulder press machine. I timed my walk back nicely for Moira to be waiting at the gate for me.
I did a crossword when I got back then it was quiz time on TV. After dinner I started reading another book by Ann Cleeves, this one is with her woman detective 'Vera', it is good so far. There was European League football on the TV, Man City v Barcelona. I turned it on just before half time and Barcelona were 2-0 up. I switched off and turned on again for the final 5 minutes, Man City had scored but still ended up losing 2-1, luckily, as Messi missed a penalty which was the last kick of the game.
I went to bed and continued reading for a while before getting to sleep.
