I slept well last night, the first time in ages. Clearly finally
getting the double glazing done & completed has set my mind at rest so I
can sleep once more. I hadn’t realised I was so stressed about it. But it’s
done now & I can relax.
Next I shall be turning my attention to finding out about Austria
& in particular, Vienna. Our holiday there is coming up fast. I need to sort
out where we might like to visit, even if we do decide just to mooch around the
hotel & its immediate environs.
Thoughts about holidays, & the horrific recent events in
Tunisia, seem to raise the question of whether it’s safe to travel abroad these
days. Tunisia is not the only place recently struck by terrorism. France, too,
has seen its share. I can’t help concluding, though, random acts of terrorism
could happen anywhere, even in this country. Having said that I wouldn’t choose
to go to Africa or the Middle East, which both seem to be filled with violence,
political instability & religious intolerance. We had contemplated a Nile
cruise not so long ago but that is far from our thoughts now. However, we will
not be deterred from France, a country we love, & which I feel is as safe/unsafe
as England at the moment. Or from Austria in a few months’ time.
