Booking for Spain again

Another cloudy day with some drizzle, but 16C again. Pancakes, sweet and savoury, for breakfast. Clare went out after breakfast. I completed the recording and editing  for next week's Wednesday Morning Prayer, then made the video slide show to go with it and uploaded it to YouTube. I don't know why, but I had trouble for the first time with the video editing app, so it took me much longer than usual to complete. Then I cooked fish and veg for lunch.

Afterwards we compared diaries to agree the window of opportunity for booking a trip to visit Veronica in L'Escala. No Vueling flights out of Cardiff unfortunately, so Bristol to Barcelona was inevitable. At least with an airport coach from Sophia Gardens it's more straightforward than Cardiff-Wales. Changes to the user interface of the EasyJet website added to the difficulty of booking. Finding suitably convenient times, given a two hour onward journey increased the cost and so did the expense of adding a cabin bag for each of us. Anyway, it's done now. We'll be with Veronica and John, 10th-16th May.

This exercise took so long it was tea time when Clare and I went for a walk in Llandaff Fields. Her hip was painful and progress slow. After a while we returned home, then I went out again and walked until sunset. I spent the evening, adding more to grandpa Jack's tale. Getting nearer the end of the story now that I have rearranged some of the recent additions as well as writing new paragraphs.
