    I was working today because I had basically forgotten that it was a bank holiday. Anyway, no interruptions, so I got a lot done, AND I now have day of TOIL.

    Tomorrow and Sunday will be gardening, sorting out the shed and stuff like that.

    I will then probably stay under the duvet and read on Monday, unless the weather is good and I feel particularly enthusiastic, in which case there is a walk that I have been considering for most of the winter. That might be the day.

        I’ve just started Iain M Banks’ Use of Weapons, it would be that. I’m catching up with some SF this year and am alternating the Culture novels with others at the moment.

            From this strand of SF, Dennis E Taylor’s Bobiverse books are by far the most compelling. It has been a while since I found something that was as unputdownable. I don’t know that they are technically the ‘best’ in terms of literary merit or anything though. I’d say that Dan Simmons Hyperion probably wins on that front.

    I work for yanks, so I feel for them and I feel for you and I feel for myself. Feelings all around.

    Anyway, I’m planning to go to the park and walk around a bit, and then come home. Sunday do nothing. Monday go to a pub and eat some juicy steak.

    Collapsing in a heap back home after a week in Paris with a hyperactive 6 year old. For all legal, societal, and taxation purposes I will be dead, likely to return on Monday.

    I’m cooking Easter lunch for the whole extended family. I’m doing carnitas (and a chicken version because we have a couple of people who don’t do pork). Looking forward to chilled hours in the kitchen cooking some fucking delicious food. Food is love and I love to cook.
