Follow the winding path through the bluebells, step through the gap between the trees. Music tugs at your feet, growing ever louder, urging you to dance. A dog barks in the distance. The music stops. Your feet bleed in your now ragged shoes. The sun looks wrong. How long have you been dancing?

Low key poisoned at the dentist this morning. Surface cleaner was in the water the hygienist was using to do her work. Thankfully the only consequences have been a foul taste and a chemical burning feeling in my mouth :/ Oh, and the anxiety. Bit of that too.

There were some accessibility objections raised about the hotel quite early on in the planning. The BFS put together a pretty good explanation for why it was the best option, comparing it to a lot of other UK hotels. It was an enlightening read

The problem of a compensatory rest after a late on call always lulls me into thinking I have an extra day to do things round the house. The reality is I make these plans and then stare at the wall like a zombie.

Use the privilege and take the more expensive option. If you can spare the £70, not arriving stressed and in more pain will make the rest of the weekend easier to manage.

Part of my RNA NWS feedback report "My feeling is the author wants some reassurance on whether or not this is ready for market. I’ll be blunt: it is. It’s ready to go. Get it out there!" While pleasant to read, I am feeling very called out. Guess it's querying time.
