I have been ...
listening to:
- lots of Al Stewart
- Dave Nachmanoff
- Marillion, Real to Reel
- Mott the Hoople's greatest hits
- La Fille du Regiment on Radio 4
- the cricket*
- Queen, The Game
watching:
- Al Stewart "live" in Grace Cathedral
- Some Like It Hot
- Sleeping Beauty on BBC2
- garden birds
burning:
- my finger, taking some toast out of the toaster
reading:
- SM Stirling, "Island in the Sea of Time"
- Pratchett, Stewart and Cohen, the "Science of Discworld" series
- Auden and MacNiece, "Letters from Iceland"
- Armitage and Maxwell, "Moon Country"
- Lindsey Davis, "Saturnalia"
going to:
- a paper on "Operational Risk" at the Institute of Actuaries.
*A colleague wondered whether these broadcasts were like Orson Welles' "The War of the Worlds": fictional reports, designed to spread gloom and despondency. If so, they're working.
