 I picked up the car, it was parked on Lower Dock Street. I brought it back to the Village and stowed a few bags of gear in the boot. I drove it to Rhiwderin and parked on Zoe & Paul's drive. I got the 9am bus back and got off at Belle Vue Park. I walked up the audiology and picked up some hearing aid batteries. I made a curry today and had curry with a mini naan bread. Also!

 I had a fairly busy day. My plan was to run over to Beechwood Road and get my car. I did that late afternoon and parked it on Lower Dock Street. I need to collect it in the morning and run some stuff over to Rhiwderin. I did all sorts of paper work and an ASDA shop. I met Evie, the student who is in thie apartment with Nicola and Lewis, the Aussies, being the other residents. I extended my stay here until check out on 19 March. I checked out the Laundry and  registered with Washnet. I enquired about staying here after I return from the USA. I will be in a different block quite probably.
