This week has absolutely flown by and I can hardly believe that tomorrow is Friday already. The weather has continued very mixed; an almost completely blue sky can be followed by torrential rain ten minutes later. During a sunny interlude on Wednesday I was walking home from the post office past the nursing home when one of the ground floor windows suddenly opened. An ancient man leaned out and asked me, “Is this Wednesday?” I confirmed that it was, we had a brief chat, and we bade each other a cheery farewell before I continued on my way.
James and I have been watching the latest series of Billions over the past few weeks. To be honest I have long since lost track of the twists and turns of the plot, but the acting is enjoyable and everything centres round the two charismatic enemies Bobby Axelrod and Chuck Rhoades, and their struggle to gain the upper hand. Tonight’s episode was particularly good, with a pleasing twist at the end.
I have also been discovering the joys of trying out my new Sonos sound system; James pointed out that since I already have Amazon Prime I have access to about two million free tunes. This indeed proved to be the case and this evening I successfully linked it to my Sonos which was very exciting. Twenty years ago I couldn’t have imagined the sort of technology that we have now. It’s great but almost bewildering in the amount of choices we have for things to watch and listen to. I wonder what my Dad would have made of it - he would have been ninety-six years old today but he was always interested in new things.
