Sunday 21 June.
It was Moira who got up this morning to make a cup of tea and then we lay in bed with it while reading the paper. It was a lazy morning and all we did was check through the boxes we planned to send to Scotland and take some stuff out that we have decided to leave here as we were now keeping the house. After that I worked on today's prize crossword in the 'Telegraph' but got stuck on one or two clues.
Suzy phoned from Port Glasgow, she had gone to check on the house there. The house was all right but she phoned to tell me about a letter from the Inland Revenue about my tax returns. They weren't happy with my claims for tax allowance on the tax I pay in SA on my pension. Suzy is going to copy the letter and email it to me.
The rest of the day wasn't very relaxing now, I was worried about this tax query. I checked up on my tax account and returns with SARS and there are two years figures on the iPad using their app. I will have something to show HMRC but I don't know how it corresponds with what I submitted to them. My UK returns are all in Port Glasgow.
At 5 pm Moira was just getting ready to make the dinner when there was another power cut. We thought it would be for 2 hours but luckily the lights came on after only an hour. This gave her time to make a chicken curry, then for me to wash up before sitting down to watch TV. We had an episode of the latest series of 'Vera' and we had seen it recently but it was all right for a second viewing. It finished at 9 pm then after that we sat for an hour reading before getting to bed.
I didn't sleep very well worrying about the Tax man. We will see tomorrow what he is after when Suzy sends the copy of the letter.
