Careless Ruthlessness

November 26, 2020 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

This is a panoramic shot of Kew Gardens taken while I was standing outside the Palm House which had just closed before we got there. Our own fault, we had arrived at Kew Gardens too late but a kind ticket collector took pity on us and let us in. As she advised, everything was closed. And all the people we encountered were walking towards the exit.

250 and Still Typing

November 5, 2020 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

This is the 250th journal in my daily succession. It’s a milestone so strange to me that I wondered what to write about.
