A lazy post

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

This week I have:

added a link to a blog by Nathalie D’Arbeloff who won the Mary Stott prize awarded by the Guardian. She asks where the older women geeks are so I felt that it was only fair to put in her link. She’s an artist and writes about stuff a bit like me – rather random or if you prefer, far ranging but with lots more pictures, obviously. She says she’s a geek as well – I leave the tech to others but am fortunate in my contacts.

saw the 39 Steps at the Oxford Playhouse which is completely terrific and funny and I recommend if it comes to a town near you.

thought about the wonderful Mary Stott whose prize Nathalie D’Arbeloff won and the story that I’ll post about her another day.

joined Facebook finally (now it’s not as fashionable as once it was) and agreed that just as I don’t drink in the same pub as my sons (unless we’re all together) neither will I touch their pages.

been shocked to discover that Jacques Brel, who is one of my very, very favourite singers is also a favourite of Alastair Campbell, one of my very unfavourite political people.

met old friends for lunch by arrangement and one by serendipitous chance and been pretty glad that not all communications are digital.

Not written on anything properly.
