Post-Easter blues...

Why do things have a tendency to go wrong after something's been really good?!! Feel like having a little moan on here for a change!

After a great Easter weekend (see previous entry below), we've had a really rubbishy week. Having really wanted a complete break from everything for a week, we'd decided to treat ourselves to a couple of nights B & B up on the North Norfolk coast - 1 of those parts of the country that we've been meaning to explore a bit while we're within reach, but not quite got around to it yet. But Lisa got knocked for 6 by a really heavy cold / flu and we weren't able to travel. Things like this always seem to happen to her in school holidays - though this was particularly bad, for a couple of days she was as ill as I've ever known her to be! So instead of heading for Norfolk I ended up spending a couple of days trying to get started on my penultimate essay in the library, while Lisa was recovering - not the week I had in mind!

Shouldn't moan too much 'cos fortunately I seem to have avoided coming down with it as well. Also we've only lost out on a small deposit for the cancelled B & B, and have just taken the risk of re-booking (though different B & B this time) and so barring any mishaps we're heading off in the morning for a couple of nights to a place called Wells-next-the-Sea. Might get a few pics up here at some point.

...and having said all that the last few days haven't all been that bad - just enjoyed a visit from my Aunt and Uncle for the last couple of days, which gave me yet another excuse to play Cambridge tour guide (still not bored of that, despite doing it countless times now!), and have just got back from the pub where I enjoyed Liverpool's victory in the derby match against Everton. Maybe things are looking up again...
