Slimon

D left early for a breezy trip out to the island; I spent the whole morning in a Zoom meeting (very draining, I find). Only went out briefly round the block - thought the ghost sign in Broad Wynd was showing up nicely in the sun. Weather still occasional brief downpours of rain alternating with bouts of startlingly gusty wind. Strange not to have to go to a polling station on election day - the postal vote is much more practical for us, but I miss the ritual.

Found myself listening to Rufus Wainwright's Requiem on R3, waiting for the polls to close and the exit polls to come out. Strange times.
