Panic

Panic, indecision, delaying tactics. You name it, I've got it!  We are off on a cruise from Southampton to Nantes and then South to La Rochelles, Bordeaux, Bilbao, Avila and Corunna. Far from saying 'how wonderful' those who are told about the trip, exclaim in horror: "The Bay of Biscay. In December. Wow!"

To tell you the truth, we had not thought about that aspect but, having done so, it doesn't worry me.  I have eaten in big liner dining rooms, where just about every other passenger was below decks, suffering.

But  I have to pack. But there's the indecision. Where shall I start? Should I take the red? or the blue? or both or neither? The camera? or forget about it? We have hundreds of photos and we never look at them any more.  Or should I play one more game of patience on my computer? I have only played about a dozen  in the last couple of hours and it has not come out once yet. Maybe another attempt would do it.

Address book or not bother? Be home in ten days after all and Christmas mail takes for ever anyway.
Oh dear, perhaps I should finish that crossword puzzle first
