Housekeeping

Feeling not 💯just now, chaps and chapesses, within the engine room, so going to try for a snooze. That thing about not going out into the midday sun might actually … er … have something to it … or rather not out into the toxic air, exacerbated by the chemicals out there.

I noticed yesterday it was not too bad at ground level, dowwnstairs, but up higher, three storeys up, opening a window has me instantly coughing, tummying, ears, all the rest of it. That seems to have been yesterday’s issue, after testing it out … and it is today too.

My windows face three directions, inc. the landing. The worst is down over the valley … almost instant illness and with good reason, the landing is not too bad, the kitchen more reasonable again.

Anyway, going to hold back polit items if you don’t mind until mid-afternoon and concentrate on a moderate wealth of films and shows, which I’ll list.

There’s a four part Wimsey, two long Christies, another film, plus a curiosity I might open with … it’s a southern lady reacting to Roman Holiday. Can’t get the actual film but these reactors can apparently access these cut up bites of footage … scenes … YT seem fine with those and the reactor droning on …

… so for me, better it’s a personable lady droning on. In the case of Roman Holiday, it’s too romantic for mine, a real girls’ film and yet … not a bad way to know what it was about, the plot, plus commentary by the reactor. In shortened form for the males of our species.

Right … after that will come one of the longs, which might take us to mid-afternoon when hopefully I’ll be in better fettle.

Hoping you survive Sunday too. For IYE, that’s a puzzler … scoured all the folders and no IYE pending there. Shall look again mid-afternoon. Ciao for now.
