Saturday morning we packed (the we meaning 99% Teresa) and drove to Glentunnel. We bought lunch on the way at Darfield Bakery - highly recommended. At this stage I was feeling OK. Then we setup the caravan, which for me means connecting power and water and setting up the satellite decoder. I was then absolutely buggered and starting to think this was not a good idea.
Weather on Saturday was good, but forecast for the next few days turned bad, with rain and cold temperatures. I spend most of Saturday afternoon trying to rest, and had a fairly sleepless night, I could not get comfortable, this is most unusual as normally we both sleep well in the caravan. I did feel slightly better after watching the All Black's win over Wales.
Sunday was cold and damp, as forecast. I was feeling quite washed out, last time I felt so bad was about a week ago. So we decided to return home.
Today I am feeling quite good, clearly I was not yet ready to get out, but the experience does not appear to have done any harm.
Plan for this week is to have 2 days of rest and light exercise. Wednesday I will go out visiting for a while, and try to replace the spare wheel on my car, still waiting for that after getting a puncture repaired just before this current wee issue. Then visit GP on Thursday to review blood test results from last Friday and talk about my recovery and return to work prospects.
