In Brief

[poliphilo]

For the second day on the run I've been able to hang clothes out on the line in the morning and have them dry by evening.

Yesterday there was an earthy smell coming from next door. Today there's been a very strong smell of varnish. I suppose that means they've put the floor boards back.

I watched the Grand National. It's like a cavalry charge, with much the same rate of attrition as there would be if the Russians were firing cannon at the riders.

Erm... I think it was Oxford. But I'm afraid I didn't watch it either.

I love hanging clothes out and having them dry in a reasonable amount of time. They smell so fresh!

Being able to hang clothes out to dry is- for me- a sign that spring has finally arrived.
