New Years Day

Visible to anyone in the world

So this morning went out on my bike in a howling storm! Got soaking wet and frozen! 

Planning on typing up my notes today and to add some dates to my calendar.

Up to looking at the speech Augustus made to the troops before the battle of Antium, but of course the course hasn't officially started yet so dont know where I should be..

Must be ahead though? smile



PM. So typed up my notes on the speech that Augustus made prior to the battle of Actium, then saw something that said Plutarch had writen this piece some 200 years after the event. if that was now, it would be 2218! How does that work? How can it in any way be reliable?.. just a thought though on the fragility of information and how it can be misinterpreted...

No hangover today, post NY eve, which for a very light drinker is a relief! Late night though, about 2.00am. Glad all of the festivities are over and we can all settle down to normality again..

Booked a ticket to go and see Oscar Wilde " The importance of being Ernest' at my local theatre, the Courtyard Theatre Hereford. Not on until February though so a bit of a wait! Not many films on at my local Odeon, unless your four years old, or a Jedi warrior.... where can I go to see films of note?? thoughtful
