Got up late, as usual.

Checked and dealt with emails.

Rode motorcycle to Barnes to see some lying client.

Rode back via Sainsbury's shopping and visit to Post office, both in Clapham because motorcycle park round the corner made it convenient to do so there.

Thought, "All that money doing out the post office in Clapham and the queue's still out the door."

Rode home, did heaps of paperwork while half watching Gosford Park and dealing with post.

Thought, "God it's great being self-employed."


Thought.

Thinking.

Pressing "Post Message".

Ooooh I had a wonderful day!

Woke up and tidied house.

Made porridge with strawberries and mixed seeds - lots of brownie points as my breakfast for the last three weeks has been a pain au chocolat in Victoria Station

Had a fantastic chat with someone which really sorted some big issues out in my head

Finally stopped procrastinating and did half of my course homework (god I feel like I'm at school again).


Giving myself a big gold star today!

Finished of a wedding book layout.

Met with my printer to review a job.

Bravely picked up the phone and made an appointment with the dentist.

Cycled to RAK studios in St.Johns Wood to see a client (and back).

Hung two pictures in the living room that I'd been meaning to do for ages.

Decided to go and see a friend in Fordcombe, Kent. Bought organic cocoa and honey to drink after planned walk there. Seethed when the train to E Croydon had to return due to some signalling problem. Got refund (the man was there). Went to Dulwich Library and got travelogues out instead.

Rang council over dog dirt signs and tree planting. Rang Coop over its increasingly crappy shop in FHR. Watched Sebastiane then Victoria Wood. (Sublime to ridiculous actually fits, here.)

Cleaned sink with bicarb of soda. Checked on wormery worms (more of them, less paper.) Spent too much time in between in EDF!

Took an early 7.15 8.0am constitutional walk with an ex business partner in Dulwich park. Discovered that my shelving system had pulled out four plugs and screws and was leaninig out 6 inches from the wall, then decanted all the lever arch files on to the floor. Took car to the wash and felt better afterwards. Asda to buy basics not crowded goody goody. Lady friend arrived I signed her reference form went to bed had an orgasm she had two I bathed her then got in after she vacated it, dropped her off at the station. Now off to swim at Pulse having forummed for an hour.

    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.            
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
    • Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics?  Surely they must be insured for things like this? I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.
    • The Pie House Co-op Deptford Emergency Crisis - Needs YOUR Help. This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system. We have been forced to close for one of the busiest weekends of the year, losing thousands of pounds in income, and are now having to fight our landlords for support with the leak. We are asking all our allies for support as we try and reignite the crowdfunder to reflect the new expensive work that needs to take place, and the gear we need to replace. Thank you in advance for your support so far, and your support going forward. If you have any ideas with getting media attention, or fundraising - please get in touch on [email protected] Even if you like myself have not previously visited this venue, supporting small not for profit venues are vital to the life blood of what 'commmunity' is all about.
