The accidental finding

Lockdown in the ghost town

Let's draw a veil over nursery. After I left, I walked home through the now-very-quiet town, to find out what had happened to my online course enrolment.

The course (in contemporary short stories) was due to start at 4. I made a call just after 2 because my email.od last night had not been answered. The upshot was that I was re-admitted to the course (for some reason I'd been enrolled in December and un-enrolled on the same day) just twenty minutes before the course started! Not much time to read a short story...

I managed a third of it. Glad I kicked up a fuss, because I think the course will be one of the highlights of my week in these confusing, isolated times (the set book is The Penguin book of the Contemporary British Short Story. Today we discussed Come rain or Come shine by Kazuo Ishiguro).

What else? I started a new jigsaw. Re-watched the Pembrokeshire Murders ep.1, because episode 2 was on tonight. Very good, creepy. It's based on a true story of an investigation into multiple crimes that took place in Pembrokeshire, Wales, from the 1980s onwards. For the victims of murder it is, of course, too late, but maybe justice will prevail.
