In keeping with the theme of a Friday Feast, had lunch a while ago, consisting of herring in tomato sauce with tomato and onion, pickled with apple cider vineagar, black pepper, salt and a hint of sweet chilli sauce, then a grapefruit, followed by coffee with cream. And now responding to a few posts on the forum.
@MDT is, or has been at a work function which I hope puts a sparkle in his day; @Shaz51 is preparing a roast chicken dinner, probably finished eating the dinner by the time this is posted, after a busy week; and @StuF says G'day.
Well, it''s still fairly early here, at a bit before 5.00 pm {AWST}, but it's either dinner or coffee and cheese time over East, I would think.
Today, I attended the local High School Presentation Ceremony. It was enjoyable, with a mix of student/teacher performances which broke up the more mundane aspect of presentations and speeches covering the year's accomplishments and the hopes for the future. I didn't attend the light lunch afterward - too many temptations for my good.
After that I went to the chemist and, with picking up some medt'n, had a chat with the chemist who is an old guy like me. We made some comparisons between events happening now and those early to mid last century. Some of the projections that come from those comparisons give cause for concern. However, no better or worse than what has been enjoyed, experienced and survived before, but some worth keeping in mind as cautionary tales.
My projection for the weekend is to get out into the yard and do some tidying up. I would like to think that will lead to some evidence of both pleasant floral and shub style plants and also some edibles. I think that it would be a good idea for me to work on one project at a time in order to not create a mental overload. But something of a generalised goal is probably worth maintaining.
Time to post these comments and move on to the next task.
With Best Wishes
