Madrid Airport


I'm here.
I'm dead tired
I'm ready to go home.

I got into Madrid at 10:30 last night after a train tour around the Netherlands which started at 6am.
As is always the way, I went to dinner and ate about a pound of red meat at midnight.
I ended up with the worst heartburn of my life and did not sleep for more than 15 minutes at a time.
I was having one of those "Christ its 4:30 am and I've not slept, and I'm getting up in two hours" moments all night long.
I started to seriously wonder if I was having a heart attack, or something. You get that way when you're tired and alone and sick in a hotel room far from home.....or having a heart attack.
I was absolutely shattered all day and still am. The dark circles under my eyes are growing bigger and moon-like.
I get into the UK at 12 midnight and then face a two hour drive home.
I need to slow down
Or I'm going to die
soon
With that cheerful thought,
Ciao!

Terry - I don't want to go to your funeral anytime soon. OK! Please take better care of yourself - pal! I'm counting on it.
