A Night Of Coughing

After coughing for the first 30 minutes Steve decided to head off to the spare bedroom and hopefully allow Nic to get some sleep. 40 minutes later still coughing but eventually dozed off only to be woken every 1.5 to 2 hours by another coughing fit. Needless very little sleep was had through the night not helped by having to get up at 06:45 to head off for train to spend next 3 days in Edinburgh.

On arriving in the office. Busy day of meetings, calls and financial re-forecasting followed broken only by a break for a lunch of omelette and salad. Followed by a 30 minute chat with someone who I have enjoyed knowing for the last 12 months but who has just resigned.

Finally packed in at 18:15 and headed back to hotel for late evening meal of grilled steak and veg - requested it rare and it came back more grey than a battleship so was promptly returned to the kitchen for them to cook a proper steak as ordered.

Hoping for a better nights sleep in advance of another long day tomorrow. Hey Ho.

Meanwhile Nic was a bit more in control of her meals: remains of the cawl for lunch and a dinner of roasted peppers stuffed with couscous, feta, olives, mint, parsley and cherry tomatoes.  She's in bed by 9 with a sore throat and cough though, having (inevitably) caught Steve's bug.
