Hinges

Another sunless day.

Caught up with a few domestic tasks and walked the dog.

Last night felt a bit under the weather so turned in early and read a bit.  I finished W
Elizabeth Jane Howard's autobiography Slipstream.  I must have heard a radio programme that she was twice a guest on Desert Island Discs.  Scrolling through BBC Sounds I found a truncated interview with Roy Plomley without any music and a second full programme interview with Sue Lawley.  

I was struck how Desert Island Discs interviewers have altered over time.  Roy Plomley had a polite, avuncular, formal interviewing style.  Listening to Sue Lawley's sometimes abrasive, challenging style perhaps borne out of current affair/political interviewing career is a sharp contrast to Lauren Laverne's easier, relaxed approach.

Two chilly dog walks today.  I spotted these new decorative hinges in a timber gate.

Pleasant evening everyone.
