Niggles!

Im out of my comfort zone so no surprise. Midsummer revellers kept us awake most of the night. By 6 I decided enough was enough. Early breakfast and away. Last night I failed to connect to the Hostels wifi which wound me up. Sorry Paul if I then wound you up. No c0verage in one part of the complex was the prpblem, not my recurring technoplegia. My new helmet has developed arthritis. The visor lock is playing up and im a long way from home. I chose not to spend ona new jacket for the trip due to escallating costs.,Mistake. The main zip broke this morning. Good news is it does up so I wont freeze. Bad news is I have to sleep in it!

THis morning was COpenhagen. I had no intention of going into the city. Im skittish enough without that. Satnav had other ideas. I should have guessed by theshort given mileage that something was amiss. I was on my way to a ferry I didnt want. The growth of the branches on the trees suggested I was going North. I stopped. Yep. North! Great directional skills but too late to prevent Satnav from doing what she does (Sorry ladies, today all awkward devices are female!). Given more specific instructions ie go via Malmo, she paused and announced RECALCULATING, and then took me sightseeing through the centre of Copenhagen. A is well that end well because here I am sitting in McDonalds at Malmo muk Koffee in hand. Muk ceaser salad coming up. THe crossing was abs0lutely stunning (and windy). Bridge tunnel bridge. Wow.

Love to all who texted messages to me. Why did I ever worry I would be lonely.

Next is the motorcycle club near Jonkoping, a party, and figure out how to recharge this pepper pad ona camp site. Bfn> I may be gone some time.

Ps Met a couple fresh back from Nordkapp. 2 degrees and stormy, and 50 quid t0 park their car!
