I slept like a log last night, which was something of
a result. I got up, made toast and had my usual rummage round the internet as I
do. It was much the same as ever with pettiness and trivia abounding as it
does. One use of social media is that it is a good reminder of how stupid
people are. An ex-soldier was posting to Facebook about the Fabian society are
conspiring against him. American evangelists were asking for money for them to
then had a word with the Almighty on your behalf. I see very little of what I
actually want to see though, which is what friends are up to, which is a shame.
But I did see that the archaeological dig at Bodiam Castle
(which was open to the public) closed today. That was a shame - “er
indoors TM” would have liked to
have seen that.
We drove up to the woods. Over the weekend someone has
been out and taken down all the tatty England flags around Kennington. They’ve
replaced them with Union Jacks (which is an acceptable term!)
but sadly half of them are one way up, and half the other. Still, two world
cups and one world war!!! Ing-Ur-Lund!!!!, eh?
We got to the woods and walked a longer walk today. As
we went we saw a few of the normal people, but none who had ventured more than
half a mile from the car park. We saw a horse where it wasn’t supposed to be,
and evidence (huge piles of it) of others too. The rules are quite clear
where horses are and aren’t allowed. I didn’t say anything
to the horse rider; life is too short.
I came home and made us both a cuppa. We had a
choco-break biccie with it too. Have you ever had a choco-break? Aldi do them – they are basically
a half-price kit-kat made with far better chocolate.
I organised a car service for next week, then had a
look at the monthly accounts. As always they could be a whole lot worse.
I Munzed, and Wordled from “skint” to “runny”
in three goes, then had a look at the little pond. I didn’t clean its filter
last week; I did today. I then had a look at the big pond. Last week I put some
rocket into a floating basket. It’s not done much, but I remain hopeful.
I had a sandwich as I wrote up some
CPD. Some of it was about information governance and I
found myself remembering someone I’d rather not remember. Back in the day one
of the nastier people with whom I used to work regularly got her own way in
pretty much every aspect of work. No matter what suggestions or ideas were
being suggested, she would always demand that her way was the only way that
would “obviate the obvious governance issues”. As no one was brave
enough to challenge her (as no one was confident enough about what
“governance” actually meant) she regularly got her way all the time. She
was an evil old bat… sometimes I idly ponder on the possibility of driving
round to where she lives with a catapult and a bucket of dog turds…
I got the ironing board out and ironed. As I did I
watched the first episode of the fifth season of “Stranger Things”. We
did “FEED THE FISH”, and once Treacle had calmed down I spent an hour
struggling with geo-puzzles.
“er indoors TM” went
bowling; I watched more “Stranger Things”. For a day off I’ve been quite
busy.
I’ve got to go to work tomorrow.
