We'd more or less
decided last night to stay put today so had a bit of a lie-in. Not as
cold overnight and the sun quickly warmed everything up, although a
bit too low in the sky to have much effect on the solar panels.
A lazy morning, just
pottering about until just before lunch we took Jamie for a walk into
the village, which really isn't very big with just a supermarket,
post office, a couple of bars and an agricultural cooperative, which
seemed to be the focus of interest as there were a lot of people
around it although we couldn't see why. There is also, of course, a
church halfway up the hill which is crowned by the renovated ruins of
a 13th century castle, closed up for the season but we
could see most of it from outside. Then back to Bertie for lunch to
find another Brit parked up next to us.

After lunch Bren dosed
herself up with Lemsips and got her head down whilst Terry took Jamie
for a walk along the adjacent nature reserve where the locals had
made a wide circuit which was being used to get their exercise – we
saw several elderly folk taking advantage. Then a little planning and
a bit of messing about before tea.
At last it's been quite
warm all day but, as usual, as the sun went down so did the
temperature although the forecast is for “warmer” tonight –
we'll see! Meanwhile tomorrow we'll head down onto the coast and see
where we end up after a bit of shopping and hopefully get the gas
refilled. The first bottle gave out yesterday morning, unsurprisingly
given that the heating has been on a lot.
