The Boy Wonder took his mother back to Wales straight after breakfast this morning, leaving R and me in our normal conflicted state: traumatised at being deprived of our Best Boy, yet simultaneously relieved that he’d gone. We know by … Continued

I was back in Stratford this morning to have bloods taken at the hospital. Afterwards R and I met up for coffee, then he went to do some shopping while I walked down to the river. When I first saw … Continued

Another supermarket delivery fail had me back in Stratford this morning, where despite the sunshine there were no Migrant Hawkers out because it was only 10°C. This is far closer to the seasonal average for mid-October, but still a bit … Continued

R and I had booked a block of time this afternoon to check each other’s tax returns before submitting them. It was also forecast to rain later in the day. These two facts were depressing enough for us to feel … Continued

I’d have had a reasonably productive day today, but for the three hours I spent on line this afternoon, attempting to choose and buy a replacement external hard drive. I don’t even want a new EHD, but the 50MB raw … Continued
