I had the best meal of the whole holiday at lunchtime: scrambled egg on toast and bacon. The bacon was crispy, which is exactly how I like it, and the scrambled eggs came in an oval pot that when you turned it out looked like a hemisphere of a child's brain. Much better than what passes for scrambled egg on the ship ("one slice or two?").
The best thing about Guernsey was that at times it was actually quiet. No cars, no crazy seagullls, no music coming from distance cafés: just any noise you made yourself. It was very noticeable.
In my case, coughs, then.
At least it shows I don't have tinnitus.
