Because we had been smart enough to go home early and stop drinking long before we left the part, Dan and I were just fine this morning! :D We slept in a little bit in the morning, as did Kingsley and Karin. It is a Sunday after all :D The third day of the Australia vs South Africa cricket test was on tv, and Dan settled down with Kingsley to watch it, while I made us all scrambled eggs with chives and toast for breakfast. I spent most of the morning sorting out parts of my application and cover letter to the university. Dan helped Kingsley set up an electricity reader he had bought, because they were concerned that one of the three phases was overloaded. I downloaded the program onto the pc that would allow the readers data to be uploaded, and also downloaded adobe reader so that the program could function.
Dan felt quite winded and tired at noon, so he went and had a nap for the rest of the afternoon. I spent all of that time writing the cover letter, so it was tailored to the specific qualities and experience the university wants for the position. Kingsley spent the afternoon playing with the fuse board, and kept switching sections on and off to try to solve the phase issue. The particular wire that he was concerned with was extremely hot in comparison to the other two, and as they live in a thatched house which would go up in flames in a matter of minutes if one of the wires caught fire, I completely understand his concern.
Karin had taken some per cooked mince out of the freezer for dinner, and put it on to cook at around half 6. I set about cooking the pasta for spaghetti bolognaise and grated the cheese. I had to go and get Dan for dinner just after 7, as he had been reading and sleeping in our room for all of the afternoon. He really didn't feel very well, but I made him eat some dinner with all of us which was very tasty, and much ap
Recited as we had had breakfast quite late so hadn't had any lunch. At 8:00pm kinglys decided that we all had to go to bed because he was very worried about the wire, and once we were in our bedroom he shut off all the power. Dan was pretty happy to go back to sleep after taking some sudafed, but I wasn't tired at all so I read an entire book on my iPad (it's backlit) until just after 12, when I finally went to sleep too.
