Occasionally there will be a spillover from my other work to my diary as indeed was the case with Samuel Pepys and his activities with the navy, not to mention his extra curricular activities. Controlled weather I do research on various trends that are going on in the world and this is a very small excerpt by a researcher called Deborah Tavares. If you are minded, you can hear the full article...

A Large TV for the poor, a Large Library for the Rich?
Miscellaneous distraction Last night I had difficulties sleeping, I did not seem to be tired even if I retire 11.30 pm or so. . Maybe the answer is to stop watching TV earlier and read a book or something. I have come to believe that drinking chocolate in the evening stops me sleeping.

Having breakfast out – responding to complaints
This morning we just felt like going out for breakfast. We try to let go of things a little bit on Friday in preparation for the weekend which funnily enough is busier than weekdays what with all the activities we try to attend.

Nearly the Oppenheimer film, Lammas in Glastonbury
I met for an 8.30 breakfast this morning at Wetherspoons with a friend of mine, David. There were about a dozen people there.
