2020 DIARY WEEK ELEVEN 9th MAR -- 15th MAR

It's the Cheltenham Festival this week and that includes a Day Off for me on Friday for the Gold Cup not that it would look like I'm able to go now as I've blown all my money and then some. Still we might just survive the next couple of weeks and I really need to get my head down and rest up.  Mark has put his 50th birthday details up but I don't think I can go, it's not easy that easy to get to (small village outside of Fleet) and I'll have to pass as last train home is about 10pm so I'd only be there for a short while. With it taking about hour and half each way this is one where I would need a car. Sorry Mark I do wish you a lovely day but I am in no state to come out and do anything this year (or ever really). Same is likely to happen with Lee's now as all hotels are booked up and it's a Bank Holiday so trains probably on bricks, with coaches the other option. 

How can I break out of this? I suppose staying offline as much as possible would be a good start, yet this month ahead I need a gift for Mrs Hughes? No idea really what to get her. And now it's Tuesday and I'm as rough as old boots, cannot breathe, struggling. Got so bad I worked at home on Wednesday and Thursday and getting stressed plus cold I don't want this illness, it's not how I wish to go. All the football is now being called off, should imagine that horse racing will go the same way fairly soon, and we see if work make a decision about coming in or not. 

Friday off for Cheltenham although not going nor off to see Graham either, no idea what my short term future is now but something needs to happen.
