I made a start to my new job today - the research assistant work at the Law School. I didn't have much to do, but it included setting up an Excel spreadsheet (!)
Miah swatted Susan out of the way this morning in a desperate break for freedom. She left Susan reeling, and got out for 8 hours from 8 'til 4. Was glad to see me return home, though.
Toad in the Hole for tea.
It has been an OK day today, but it looks like the evening may be the best of it.
Cold, though.
I therefore have ALL of the windows in the house open.
Oh! there are chestnuts on the cobbles in the High Street and the leaves have started to turn. The ivy? - whatever - clinging to New Kings is beginning to go russet. It's AUGUST!
Let it be recorded, by the way - this happened last Friday, but I haven't noted it yet - that my friend got his LLM (with Distinction) last Friday, and is heading off south (to 'Annieville', in fact) to embark upon his PHD.
I am whooshing thru' 4.50 From Paddington at the minute. Stylistically, I believe, the text betrays signs that the book was dictated rather than written.
Susan will be in Hebden Bridge next week - a well-earned break. I will be left alone to cope with in-out-in-out Miah, which will be interesting - I need to sleep with the light on when I'm left on my own, so Miah cannot expect me to keep on opening the door for her... there might be zombies...

Hope this leads to a Douglas & Sue visit to Annieville!
