Two weeks ago Michele and I went to the UK, and as soon as we landed I traveled forwards in time two weeks. Now I&#8217;m on the sofa surrounded by birds and a bat. For some weird reason I have memories of the missing two weeks, but it seems more like a dream. Now it&#8217;s Sunday night and I&#8217;m back to work tomorrow. Which life is real, the one in London or the one here? Or is this all a dream?<\/p>\n<p>All that&#8217;s left is a few <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/veghead\/sets\/72157623277623142\/\">scenic photos<\/a> and some memories. For the benefit of my <acronym title=\"Long Term Memory\">LTM<\/acronym>, the memories include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nights at the Hob, the Walpole, the Amersham, the Glasshouse, the Market Porter<\/li>\n<li>Lots and lots of lovely, lovely, people who we both really miss&#8230;but we still missed out on seeing loads of others &#8211; mainly because of the crapper than usual weather which kept us snuggled up indoors for most of the first week<\/li>\n<li>Food and drink! Curries, kebabs, a particularly good steak pie, wine, beer, Calvados and all-sorts&#8230;not to mention my mum&#8217;s peerless roasts and breakfasts<\/li>\n<li>Scenery, history and vibes<\/li>\n<li>Family, which we both miss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now we&#8217;re back and the birds were very happy to see us. While we were away Pepper reverted to her bad old ways, probably thinking we had abandoned her. As a result Michele and I have both sustained many nasty bites and blood has been drawn. But after the application of some gentle re-education and love she has calmed done and for the last couple of days hasn&#8217;t even threatened me with a bite. Poor confused little girl.<br \/>\nLeo has been even more loving than usual &#8211; it&#8217;s very flattering to be recognised by a small bird, let alone be adored by one.<br \/>\nWork tomorrow.<br \/>\nDespite that, it&#8217;s good to be home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time travel can have a very strong impact on the human body and mind.
