Back to the movies rigs - I think most are now too dumb to bear. This
is a world that turns computers into toys. The gated sheep is about
right. I can't work out why they don't do much for 'our market
segment'. Nearly all the good films I've seen in the last twenty
years have been French, German or Spanish (Mario et Jeanette; Mephisto/
Colonel Riedel, Belle Epoch/The Pope's Toilet/Pierot Le Bon Bon) and I
even like my cops French (Spiral), Danish (The Killing), my humour
Norwegian (You The Living). My great literature comes from Darwin,
Einstein, Maxwell (not the dog) and any biologist other than Dawkins.
Cervantes and Tom Sharpe were sharp. Kierkegaard is best read as a
teller of shaggy dog stories, Lyotard as telling ripping yarns. There
is no television channel for poor little me! We have a place called
the Corner House (run by one of my ex-students) that shows arty films.
Max takes me to woodland and a river on his walks. Fish, frog spawn,
wet-land development, brilliant trees, other dogs and mostly lovely
owners, young lovers, kids being kids, kingfishers, a heron, ducks -
Max seems to admire the ducks. I would like to write a translation of
his nose language. He's basically a moon dog - stare at his face long
enough and he looks like the moon.
I read the other day that 72% of kids arriving at Harvard are virgins
and 22% still are when they graduate. Maybe crass baa baa culture
doesn't get to all?

I've just bought a shredder to cope with the vast amount of pruning
debris from the back garden. Back door needs a coat of wood preserver
- most of the rest is UPVC. Off to Belfast for some R & R.

Yes- the unexpected- thinking we have everything figured out and up
pops a snag. The building inspector comes by today for a final
inspection so we'll see what's what.//We had a downpour last night-
