An
annoying, potentially catastrophic, but expected thing happened today. In the interests of not moping about that, I will list the things that were excellent that happened today:
- Excellent meeting with many potential collaborators, which is likely to lead to exciting work stuff!
- Tea with doseybat, who I haven't seen in person for ages but is still as lovely and interesting in person as online, and that was super!
- Our toilet flush sheared off last night, which wasn't great, but the eternally lovely and ingenious CRI bought a replacement flush mechanism and fitted it while I was out, and now the flush works better than it has in months and I am very grateful to him.
- I got to prance around cherry trees in blossom (with comfrey growing underneath) looking at bees and got some good pictures too, I think, and saw a pair of yaffles and a jay and parakeets.
So on balance, I enjoyed today despite politics.
