It says something for the mildness of the climate at this date in October that the swimming pool roof was partially retracted for my mid morning swim. I berated roundly by the cleaning lady for arriving for my swim later than normal – but I, quite legitimately had been doing my self-imposed tasks for which I managed to pay only 50c for a parking place in the centre of town. Result!
Since being given a business card by an
educational colleague I have been twisted with bitterness and shame that I did
not have one to give in exchange. I have
therefore ordered my own to be produced by a firm in the centre of town. They will, alas, be pale reflections of the
multi-coloured mini-masterpieces that I have seen, but it is at least a start.
And don’t get me started on making your own
with the specially produced programs and pre-cut cards which you can pay at
reasonable cost. I have spent more man-hours
trying to do the simple version than I care to think about!
I have given the basic information that I
need on such a card to the printers and have already been presented with two
variations – neither of which I like, but both of which have elements which can
be blended to produce something satisfactory.
It is also astonishing how many minor points that need changing on
something so fundamentally simple!
Dinner with Irene and an extended session
of setting the world to rights and convincing each other that we are the people
to do it. Such sessions are essential
for the maintenance of mental health!
Roll on tomorrow.
