24th September, 2025.
I think we can safely say it’s turning autumnal.
For a starter?
My feet are freezing: more-so, I’m told, than those of us who aren’t diabetic.
The condition causes poor circulation that shows up — in my case? — as chilly toes.
Slippers help.
Which is not something I was expecting to tell you, when I was in my twenties …

Which reminds me: those feet were complained about by an ex-girlfriend, back when we were dating.
There was one night, though, that managed to stick in my mind: as we spend the night watching a film called Event Horizon.
Which was a fantastic piece: but flawed, as the director’s plans — to make a two-hour version — were overruled by the studio.
Who insisted on a ninety minute cut.
The missing footage has long since been lost.
That’s a screaming shame.
The version presented is great, but you can spot the flaws with some of the character development: especially with the Sam Neill character, Dr Weir.
Yes: I have got a 4k version of the thing on order.
But … ?
I would dearly love to see that director’s cut.
