Something of a disappointment today. Ordered a new chair for the desk last week, and found out today, from Skrouts, that they’ve had to cancel and refund. I was hoping it was the thing waiting for me at the courier this morning, but that’s going to be something else now, and not the new chair I need. Ah, well, as soon as the refund comes in, I’ll start hunting again. Meanwhile, I have a root canal job at the dentist today, so that’ll cheer me up.

The days are gradually changing, the air is tinted with a slight chill, which will increase in time, but you could still sunbathe in the sun yesterday, and people are still swimming as the sea is still warm. Allegedly. I have a long list of jobs to do about the house, including cleaning the windows (how do they get dirty when it’s not raining?), varnishing the balcony floor, preparing the house for winter, which means draft-excluding where possible, and all that malarky, so there’s plenty to keep us busy between work and writing and watching films.
