Have got up early to try and get on top of work before departing to the Balkans tomorrow. Had actually been awake more or less since 4 am; slept very badly, as is often the case when a) early start for work looming and b) very nice dinner last night and c) B also awake and banging around noisily. She’s now come downstairs to join me, and is hiding under her duvet on her favourite chair watching me.
