Nigel Avails Himself Of A Few Days In Exmouth

Nigel, bless him has taken himself off for a few days, he said he had a sudden yen for the sea.
I think it may also have a lot to do with the somewhat tense atmosphere currently permeating The Towers ….. yes, we have a new shower …… but Tom (the Plumber not the Scientist)  failed to turn up as promised or even call at the weekend to install it, leaving us in a state of limbo not knowing whether to in turn call him for fear of nagging or looking needy!
I think after our en-suite saga is finally over I may also need to take a few days by the sea in order to recover.
Nigel says that Exmouth is beautifully peaceful, and almost deserted  at this time of year, he has filled his lungs with the bracing sea air and found having the beach almost all to himself most cathartic …….
…… and that he has been channelling his new found inner peace, of a  Derek Acorah type nature, to both Darrell and especially me, bless him.  I feel sooooooooo guilty!
He said he wasn’t really planning on doing much, other than keeping his head down until he feels the coast is clear for him to return home, preferably to a fully functional shower room! He thinks he may have missed the opportunity to Sail with Santa or partake in a Festive Special and that although he very much embraces the odd robin or a Canada goose, a guided bird watching cruise isn't really his thing …..

Hopefully all is good back at The Towers. Sea air is so bracing.
