Last night, power failure, sort of drunken note, but not really

Initially titled "The day in reverse"...

I am having a gin and tonic. I have stepped in a dog's poop. I was stopped by the police and tested for alcohol level in my breath: then they let me go (too high? too low? we'll never know). I had indeed had one beer. I met my boss in the pub. I had a good long working day. I had to wash after boiling water, because the hot tap water stopped just before I was going to start using the soap... and the diplomatic staff was not to observe all that.

If you don't understand the above, that's OK. On this particular occasion I didn't mean to make sense. This is this mornings note.
