Keir keeps dated notes on the day walks he manages between maintenance contracts, including the ones he abandons before leaving home. He checks land-manager notices and forecasts, packs for the outing and makes a return plan with someone. Finishing early can mean curry sooner; finishing tired can mean no extra walk at all. A tavern cider is for a night when someone else is driving or he can walk home.
