Sunday of Sorrow and Pity

Dropped the daughter off at work then packed the car and rushed to the tip. I’d somehow mis-timed my trip and had 15 minutes to pack the old bits of sofa and storage heater, and a sack of garden waste, and get to the tip at Haverhill.

I got there with five minutes left in my slot. Then back home to answer some emails, including one from my French teacher. I sent her the link to the documentary The Sorrow and the Pity , and then made a huge mistake. I started watching it. I watched it about 25 years ago, and was impressed, and after watching four hours this afternoon I was still impressed. It wasn’t part of my plans for the day, though.

I looked once again for a new laptop, since my money has arrived from my previous employer. My heart wasn’t in it, though. Windows is now a marketing platform, and Macs are over-priced. I delayed the decision.

I’ve written a few retrospectives in the last few days, so I won’t bother with one this Sunday.
