#5 in 2023

I took myself away for a few days. I was hoping to get some work done but spent my time reading Jeanette Winterson’s ‘Oranges aren’t the only Fruit’. I found it really funny in parts. And sad in other parts. I walked a good deal. Went to a music concert (no regrets). And saw the movie Frere et Soeur. A French indie film which seemed to be about the “greatest taboo”. I say ‘seemed to be’ because I think something got lost in translation. I don’t need to say any more than that (many regrets). (The acting was corny in places. Do people still use the word corny?) I made roast beef with all the trimmings on Easter Sunday. Instead of pudding I had a Thorntons Easter egg. The small
white chocolate bunny. I pulled the ears off and chomped them. The rest is wrapped in tin foil and being nibbled on daily.
Work is stressful at the moment. But what’s new?
The weather was ghastly today. Wet. Freezing cold. High winds. Storm Noa.
