Ok, so I`m feeling a bit smug. I have a belly full of beautiful barbequed beef with a fine burgundy, beans fresh from the garden, local cheeses and freshly made tart with plums straight from the tree. Yummy.

On the not-so-smug-side I had a hacking smoker`s cough this morning after yesterday`s 15 km hike followed by a 20km cycle, 12km of which was up a (gradual) hill. Seems clean air was a bit too much for my polluted lungs.

But hey, no sleazy looks or comments for over 24 hours, most of which was not spent indoors!
