31.05.2006 – Wednesday 31 May – Cold in the City

Morning

• It is very cold.

Afternoon

• I bussed into town, exchanging my corroded battery charger for a new, shiny one, and forgetting to take in the bond refund form, although I did remember to pick up a CD for Bronwen.

Night

• Bronwen and I had a somewhat heated discussion about the relative worth of the house she’s currently interested in. I think it is a terrible prospect—she is very interested. I fitted the sticky padding I bought from the hardware into my bike torch holder, making a nice snug fit for my new torch, and went for a walk around the park for want of anything better to do with my torch.

  Torch song. Something which does not necessitate long walks around the park. But rather short walks around the bedroom.
