I must have needed the sleep and slept right through. Ellie and I went out at 6 am to avoid the heat. We had a lovely walk to Gallow’s field and along the river. It really is the best time of day.

Because of the heat and the long walk, I think Ellie will be sleeping the rest of the day!
I met Pam in Canterbury and we went to the Marlowe theatre to watch the Rocky Horror Show, very amusing. Thankfully the air con was on in the theatre.
I tend to get the bus to the theatre as parking in Canterbury is horrendous. BUT they only run about one every two hours in the evening! So, I decided to try the new Thanet Parkway rail station. It has just opened and at the moment they are not charging for parking. Ok, so I parked the car in an almost empty car park. No staff around so I followed the signs to platform 1 and 2, walked up masses of stairs only to find the train was coming in on the other platform. No there is not a bridge to cross the track, you have to go all the way down the many steps, round the corner, under a bridge and then another load of steps to climb. So, they need to improve their sign posting. There are no WC’s , no ticket office and no staff that I saw. There was one other person who got onto the train as well as me. Kent County council do love throwing their money away!! I think this says it all.
Mal still has this rotten virus and I think slept some of the time I was out.
