I spent a day on which incessant rains returned in earnest reading more of “Nana”.
Apparently Becky had plenty of time to seek out and set Jackie’s camera to catch me napping again.
Ian returned home to Southbourne late this morning, and was therefore unable to join the rest of us in our evening meal from Oliver Chinese Take Away’s excellent food, with which I drank Mighty Murray Shiraz and Jackie drank Hoegaarden
Lock all the doors before the rampant photographers get out their phones. Time for you to retaliate.
Thank you very much, Catherine
You look very peaceful there Derrick!
Thanks very much, Kim
I’ve fallen asleep while reading more times than I could count.
I usually battle against it, yet am much more refreshed after succumbing. Thanks very much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
Ah the power of a good nap. There is nothing quite like it!!
Thanks very much, Donna
Why is it no one catches us when we are actively working? ????
Quite. Thanks very much, Diane
HAHAHA! Oh, that Becky! 🙂 Tell her it’s not a nap. It’s just a much needed life pause, preferably with a good book. Ha!
“A nap is always a good idea.” – Cooper
HA…I love socks and you are wearing some cool ones. 🙂
(((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
PS…your napping photo reminds me of some great old rock songs…
“I Fought the Nap and the Nap Won” – The Clash
“Eight Naps a Week” – The Beatles
“With a Little Help from My Nap” – The Beatles
“(I Can’t Get No) Nap” – The Rolling Stones
“Baba O’Nappy” – The Who
“We are the Nappers” – Queen
Okay…I’ll stop now. I’m due for a nap. 🙂
Sleep well, Carolyn. Thank you very much XX
Nice snooze and spiffy socks.
Thanks very much, Pat
I hope for your sake that “take a photo of Derrick napping” doesn’t become the new game!
Oh, I’m sure it will 🙂 Thanks very much, Merril
Oh dear. You’re welcome, Derrick. 🙂
It happens to me too!
Thank you very much, Sylvie 🙂
We need our naps Derricks … nice haircut ..
Thanks very much, Ivor
It looks like it was a good nap. I like the socks.
Thank you very much, JoAnna
Best kind of nap 🙂
Thanks very much, Rosaliene
No dozing off during dinner, though?
Definitely not. Thanks very much, Judy
It’s meditation
Indeed – even unconsciously 🙂 Thanks very much, Gary
Hold that book tight Derrick, it might fall…haha!
I’ve only ever dropped one once 🙂 Thanks very much, Arlene
I think those chiropractor treatments are improving your looks. 😉 Love those socks.
Thanks very much, Chrissy 🙂
I am impressed you read sans spectacles – and how fortunate that you napped with your mouth closed 🙂
So true, Anne. 🙂 I am basically short-sighted and have never needed specs for close work. Thanks very much
I have heard that naps are very good for the health. So nap on!
Thanks very much, Laurie
LOL! I hate it when I fall asleep reading a book and wake up to find my spot lost when the book fell on the floor…. On the other hand, when the body demands a nap, the body wins.
Thanks very much, Doug
This is exactly what happens to me when I read at bedtime. Two pages and I’m gone!
Thanks very much, Sue. I don’t take a book to bed any more for that very reason
You will get your own back for sure.
Cheers, Andrew
Sometimes reading too much makes our eyes sore! ????
Thanks very much, GP 🙂
Still life.
🙂 Nice one, Tootlepedal. Thanks a lot
You look peaceful, Derrick. A good nap helps rejuvenate energy.
It does. Thanks very much, Eugi
You’re welcome, Derrick.
You look nice and cosy and comfortable Derrick with your reading xx <3
Thank you very much, Sue X
Sweet shots of you Knight.
Thanks very much, Flow
The cats here highly recommend naps and conspire to get the people to sit or lie down so they can serve as cushions and pillows. I tend to fall asleep reading, too, and may wake up with a cat or two jostling for space. 🙂
Thanks very much, Lavinia. It was the click of the close up shot that woke me 🙂
Nothing better to do on a rainy day other than to read and nap.
Thank you very much, Andy
You’re welcome.
There’s nothing wrong with g with a nice nap on a rainy day ☔️
Agreed. Thanks very much, Robbie
Why fight it? Oh, what am I saying; you didn’t 😉 However, you can create a rule that it is not allowable to take pictures 😉
Thanks a lot, Dale. I don’t have to use them 🙂
This is always true 😉
What a cheeky bunch of snappers you have.
Thanks very much, Lindsey
Is that what reading Zola does to you, Derrick? Cook socks.
Thanks very much, Dolly. 🙂
You are very welcome, Derrick.
Nothing wrong with a power nap Derrick, I do them all the time.
Yep. Thanks a lot, Sheree
Well done Derrick 🙂 A good book and a nap can change your day 🙂
Thank you very much, Riba
Pretty sure my family’s cameras could catch me at this every day.
Thanks very much, Ed
