I had to deal with workmen today. This meant I ended up in the gym at 2am trying to tire myself out as my brain was stressed by their imminent arrival and not letting me sleep. While they were here it was very stressful. But the old shed has been demolished & a new shed base has appeared.

There has been an awful lot of military plane activity over my obscure fenland village recently, which is strongly correlated with the reports of Russian airspace incursions across parts of NATO. Yesterday it was fighter planes doing exercises. Today this has just gone overhead (noisy bugger).
