20th November, 2018.

Right …

A problem.

My router’s re-setting itself … !

That’s a lovely thing to be waking up to!

~≈§≈~

Oh, just as a thought … ?

I managed to watch a film, last night.

Frankly?

I was feeling a little retro: and managed to catch the Hammer version of Quatermass and the Pit.

Interesting to watch, that one.

*        Now that must be something to watch, Olga!   Beats Cash in the Attic!   At ANY rate … ?   I’ve an interview, tomorrow: here’s hoping … (I’ll have to ask if the job offers help with the commenting costs.   I should be able to get some from the job centre, but still …)

†        You’ve got my sympathies, there, Debbi!   I know one chap who’s only ever released a couple of books: ones that have a cult following.   He’s got problems with bootlegs copies on Amazon … (Urology involves … well … not studying men in particular …)

‡        Does anyone want to mention Colonel Bogey at this point?
