Hello there. Not done that much today. I thought another lie in might help the cold. It's not major at all anymore, and I'm feeling much less tired.

I spent a good hour filling and praparing the walls in my brother's old room. There's no way that'll be done before I go back to Exeter now. Something to come home to at Easter. One day when people come to visit they can have that room and I won't have to sleep in the dining room.

Later on this afternoon I decided to get out and about and drove up to Kidderminster. No particular reason, other than it was about the right distance and involves going on just about every sort of road imaginable.

This evening Rosie phoned. She's back in Exeter, and is already unpacked and has been shopping for some food. She said we're going to do more trips this term than last term, wahey. We're going to go to Plymouth, Dartmoor, Torquay, maybe Exmoor. It's going to be all go. That's what reading weeks are all about.

Really don't want to do the uni work for next week. I'm not minding the idea of going back and having lectures, it's just the work for them. Essays, revision. Still, it is the last year - wahey.

What colour do you think my brother's old room should be? I don't just mean the walls - the whole lot. The woodwork is going to be white. The landing from which it is off has dark red walls and light brownish carpet. Answers in the comments box please.
