This picture, taken from Hope Park Square looking out over the Meadows, is intended to convey the bleakness of the weather right now.

I wouldn't want to discuss this, were it not for the fact that I received an email from some Australian headhunters looking for my advice on candidates for a post at a University in Australia in a city described as a having a Mediterranean climate. Right now, that felt like twisting the knife....

Meanwhile, today I have mainly been in problem-solving mode. Probably the only person whose problems I haven't solved is me.

Mine remain legion. And insoluble. Hey ho. Tomorrow is another day, and perhaps tonight I'll sleep.
