“Either he's dead or my watch has stopped.”

Lazy sod! Me that is. A sudden burst of posting and then a week of nothing. I'm back into my work routine and unfortunately I can see my wasting of my days off falling back into place. One good thing however is I feel a whole lot more positive, that sense of dread and doom that often totally disabled me is thankfully missing (at least for the moment - wait until the full blast of winter hits you!) - Hey ! stay cheerful!

Whilst in Vancouver we had a night of storms and the next day the power was out. (This seems to be quite common in a land of so many trees). Consequently I had an interesting day of experiencing the modern life style sans electricity, no shops no music, no heat. Actually the whole day was really enjoyable, thankfully Barbara had a ready supply of candles and boardgames. One bonus was the view of the night sky, without the light pollution , the stars were beautiful ( even to me with my night blindness!)
