As many of you know I like to start my day with Trans World Radio. I listen and wait for a phrase or text to jump out at me. The above phrase did. I spend more time than I should do doing just this, to zero benefit as things always turn out as they should do. Instead of 'looking about' I should substitute 'prayer'. The past couple of days have been worrying. Many said that Trump was going to...

The last day of freedom – a trip to Bath
Time to get of the house on this the last day before lockdown 2, a totally useless and corrupt plan to enslave us all and destroy small businesses. The USA election is the usual mess which hopefully will be sorted out by Friday. To Bath. A walk along an area by the Town Hall Admin offices. Lovely to see such a show of flowers. The river Avon, that bisects Bath. In full flood due to earlier...
Not one of my best days
I have just tried unsuccessfully to search for my tablet. I have a horrible feeling that I interleaved it between some newspapers and took the pile of newspapers outside to be collected and it went with them. The day did not start too well. Our gardening client in her drunken stupor sent me a text telling me she wanted a refund for work that we have done to her satisfaction. I don't think...
Trouble with my computer
If there's one thing I need to rely on and that is my computer, resplendent with two screens. I need two screens because I transferred data from one database to another and I can't bear or should I say find it difficult to have two screens on one. You can either have side-by-side versions or top and bottom. Either is a severe compromise. I asked my techie friend to install Windows 10. I have...
Wetherspoon’s revisited
This morning it was raining so I decided to cheer myself up by going along to Wetherspoon's to see how they were weathering (no pun intended) the unceasing change in these ridiculous times. I entered. There was no one at the desk but I filled in my contact details anyway and took a menu as invited (the coronavirus loves hanging around on menus). Most of the stalls were occupied so I sat down on...
A surreal view of a Bath Abbey Service
Today I viewed some streaming from Bath Abbey. So the virus is very clever. It keeps away from the choir when they are singing but will attack the congregation if they sing. I can find no respect for the church's' caving in to this ridiculous series of edicts. If I went along saying I was exempt they would not let me in. Our opportunities for freedom diminish by the day but the trends are...
