The Electricians: Day 12

[poliphilo]

Khalid and his crew have been here, but it's the window boys who took centre stage. At the end of the day we have power everywhere- except in the kitchen- and four new windows have been fitted, plus the kitchen doors.  It's been a bright, sunny day- and perishingly cold.

A right-wing LJ friend who assured me that our political differences would never come between us has unfriended me- presumably over my Afghanistan poems. I'm a little disappointed.

 I'm reading Ophelia Field's history of The Kit Kat Club.

Tomorrow is Eid. The window boys will be coming in, but Khalid is having the day off; he's earned it.

Wow. That is just the exact opposite of here in the states. During the health-insurance 'debate', we had howling right-wing extremists protesting on the Capital steps, literally spitting at US Senators and screaming racial slurs.
