A Weird Week

Greetings!

 Well here, avid readers, is what has happened so far this week.

Sunday, I was set up to go to the local community centre AGM, when several friends dropped round for lunch.  It's not as bad as it seems.  I have to blame my memory, I'd forgotten they were coming, but it was all very enjoyable and many subjects were covered during the long conversations that went on.

The weather has been sunny but cool, especially at night, but that changed during last night when it became mild but damp, and oh boy!  are my knees suffering today.  I went out to the library, the week-end reading remember, and had to have my knees strapped up in case they let me down, and also because they ached so much!  The results of a misspent youth no doubt!

Last night, or more correctly, Wednesday evening Esti, my wife, treated me to a meal at a recently opened Thai restaurant here in Lancaster.  Really very nice, but I just don't seem to eat very much these days.  Even having a quite small meal, I still came out feeling as though I'd stuffed myself, but enjoyed it all the same!

The library.  Last week I explained finding the Beau Geste books.  I enjoyed the read but found the style a little dated.  So I tried to work out what it was about the style that is different from todays.  I think it is pace.  There was more emphasis on explaining the plot rather than letting the pace of the story carry the reader along.  But enjoyable none-the-less!

The other item of note is that I'm in the process of getting a webpage done.  Hey!  I'm getting really 21stC here, there will be no stopping me!

Until the next post, Regards.
