My own bed

I've rarely slept in my bed in the last few weeks. First there were three friends from Portugal who came to help on the ship.... and stayed with me. Then a student came and stayed here for five days.... I've just watched the film about Mandela - highly recommended! His long years in a cramped prison cell with no bed, just a blanket on the stone floor.

A warm bed is not a matter of course!

How grateful I am for my bed!
