I've been having computer problems. Every time I try to comment on someone's journal my screen freezes. I think it's working again now, touch wood.
So the horse made history and we all got to wear our hats to work. Best part of the whole day if you ask me. I supplied hats for a few people. We don't usually make much of a big thing at our museum, lucky if you catch the race really, but today we all went down to M2 as we had combined Melbourne cup drinks and sweep with a sort of farewell for me. That was nice. Driving home on the first properly hot day we've had this spring I was struck by how many women were carrying their hats. Bright and sunny out, half the people I saw looked like they were close to sunburn, and they've taken along these over the top hats which they presumably wear for 5 minutes in the office while the race is on only to carry them home. Go figure.
me me me,
history stuff
