Friday 20th July 2018 – IN THE ABSENCE …

… of a webhost at the moment (upgrades always happen at the most inconvenient times and take longer than planned), I shall be making notes, and posting them up when normal service is resumed, whenever that might be.

In the meantime, I had a decent night’s sleep for a change. In bed not too late, not too early, and I slept all the way through until the alarm. And it’s been a while since that has happened.

We had all of the usual procedure, including fresh coffee (which tasted disgusting) and then, at long last, probably 12 years in fact, I sat down at my desk and did some work.

All the way right through until, would you believe, 17:00 when I reckoned that it might be a good idea to have some more food.

No hummus as I said yesterday, and so I sat down and made some. And it’s wicked too. A pile of chick peas, some tahini, some olive oil, some chick pea liquid, a big pile of garlic, some olives, some tomato, basil, oregano, tarragon and black pepper. All of it whizzed up in the electric whizzer that I bought earlier this year.

Having tried some on my butties I can safely say that I won’t ever be bothered by werewolves and vampires. It’s probably the best that I’ve ever made. There’s a container in the fridge and two more in the freezer and this will keep me going for a few weeks.

And then – back to work. It’s really good having a proper place to work and it’s about time too.

I did actually make it outside – round about 21:45 – for a walk in the dusk. Crowds of people still about even though it’s gone quite cool. Clearly some people don’t have enough to do.

As for me, I’m going back to my desk and carrying on. And quite right too. There’s plenty to do.
