I had a lie-in and rose at 5:45, waking from a dream in which I was duty manager in a former, hated, job, and had to deal with a wild boar loose in the building.
Off I went for six miles along the sea-front. The weather forecasters had said it would be cold, so I had laid out a jacket , gloves and an ear-warming headband the night before. In the event I did not need any of these. Neither did I meet any wild boars.
