Lockdown 2:6

I’m on a conference call but I don’t have much to say so have the mic on mute and am doing stuff. Watching the great reindeer migration on the telly. It too is on mute although I doubt there is much to hear anyway. The occasional Sami drover’s call maybe plus some dulcet voice over as appropriate. Fine looking beasts ploughing through snowdrifts. Very slow going. It’s one of those long movies you have in the background. This one is two hours long. V relaxing.

It is now past 4 o’clock. Tas been a hectic day. I’m feeling disinclined to do any more work but will see how it goes. Cup of tea on the desk in front of me. Tonight we have chilli con carne for tea. Anne is fixed on watching bakeoff tonight. This is something in which I have zero interest and it has been suggested that I might spend some time in the shed. Only real problem is that I spend all day in the shed and whilst it is a great facility it is sometimes nice to have a change. Can’t even have anyone round at the mo what with the lockdown n’all.

Later watched The Band Wagon with Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse. Good movie fair play.

Waiting for my book deliveries: “Welsh Woollen Industry”, “Welsh Crafts: Dre-Fach Felindre and the Woollen Industry” and “The flannel makers: A brief history of the Welsh woollen industry” all by Geraint Jenkins. Also “A Glorious Work in the World: Welsh Methodism and the International Evangelical Revival, 1735-1750 (Studies in Welsh History)” by David Jones.
