Friday (again) 15-12-2006
Even though we had a night in last night it was still midnight before we turned ‘genny’ off and went to bed. We watched a program about building the new airport at Osaka (I think, any one know?) in Japan. They have created an island in the middle of the sea and built the airport on the island. It has been open for about twelve years and is now sinking into the undersea mud at an alarming rate and it is so successful that it already needs a second runway to compete with Tokyo and other airports. The logistics of creating this airport are amazing. They also ran a program about the success of the Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet and the fact that the original design is now over thirty years old. They are still building them at the rate of one aircraft every eight days in the largest building in the world. There you go, I don’t watch much television but that’s what I like watching when I do, that and SC Dancing of course. DYKnow, we can’t get BBC2 very well or very often so we miss out on the mid week shows of ‘SCD It Takes Two‘.
We went down to Albox this morning to get provisioned up for the weekend. By the time we got back and had some soup and a roll it was three o’clock so we are slobbing out for the rest of the day.
There was a little rain overnight, just enough to lay in bed warm and cosy and listen to it gently falling on the caravan roof. It’s mild and overcast just now (about 10 degrees).
HANWE all.
