A Bug's Life

London still good, made two tube journeys in two days without ill effects (helps to be unladen, well rested, and with opportunity for decent walking either end). My face has gone red and blotchy and puffed up - like sunburn? WTF? Down past my collarbone too, so not just windburn. On the plus side, with my eyes puffy, I can count bricks and windows on buildings 50 metres away without using my glasses. On the minus side, my mother will phone every day until I've found a drop in centre to look at it, because she's nice and doesn't want me stuck with eyes puffed fully closed after a couple of days.

Funeral was nicely done, some of my sister's friends made it up, and a few people I'd not seen since childhood. It caught me when they brought the coffin in, and I had a sad for most of the rest of the day :-(
