The end of British summer time – working on correspondence and publicity for my recent projects as Daniel spent most of the day on the Apple Mac and Debbie was also fascinated with the drawing capability. The news today of the Piraeus Greek shipping line sinking is that now both the missing teacher and pupil are presumed dead and the Russians are preparing for the launch of their equivalent to the US Space Shuttle.
The clocks were put back last night which was just as well as a whole family laid into 9:30am as 8:30am did not look so bad on our watches! A nice fried breakfast with Di much better after last night when she had to go to bed before tea. I opted against spending the morning cleaning the cars and did some inside paperwork instead. Indeed, I worked quite well today – mostly on correspondence and publicity for my recent projects. Daniel spent most of the day on the Apple Mac and Debbie was also fascinated with the drawings that came down from the 40 MB disk store. I did step out for an hour or two to cut my games lawn grass and noticed that the doves have spawned another brood due to the unseasonably mild weather.
It has been peacefully different with the builders breaking for the weekend and I look forward to them resuming tomorrow. I also hope that the Building Inspector doesn’t give any trouble. A day or two ago, I caught what I think is the last mole on the bank and have five hanging in a row now in various stages of deterioration. The news today of the Piraeus Greek shipping line sinking is that now both the missing teacher and pupil are presumed dead. The hurricane in Nicaragua are is reported to have affected 300,000 nationals with at least 50 dead and the physical damage beyond reckoning. 80% of the town of Blue Fields has been flattened by the hurricane. Now the Russians are preparing for the launch of their equivalent to the US Space Shuttle. It will be initially unmanned.
