Glimmer 23Glimmer 23 and it’s a piece of street poetry.  Made me smile as I read it. Regrades and add lines but generally an appalling day for conversion.  Good in terms of value though!  Early start, post letter for herself.  Bus home and shop.  Food and collapse.

Things to do, get head round Gemini.

A Moment of RestC still crook, had a rough nights sleep, get up manage to trip the fuses with the toaster, make coffee and that at least offers a moment of rest.  Sort out the fuses, and C comes downstairs to tell me off.  Nip to the shop for water for C and job’s a good ‘un.  Slowly sort the roast after a sarnie for lunch.

Roast was appalling.
