The morning started with a discussion group on Zoom - I am slowly getting to work my way round this new thing (as are many of us I expect). I am still without a camera or a microphone, but have found the online chat function, so I can communicate.
I have read an online book - "Lancashire United The Fleet 1900-1981 Second edition" (the second edition bit is important - it is a special .pdf version for the days of the Corona). Fascinating read.
Then I visited the Portico Library and viewed their new exhibition, online, entitled "What is it to be here - Colonisation and Resistance" Apparently today is the 250th anniversary of the arrival of the first colonialists in Australia. I am pleased to say the exhibition looks largely at the viewpoint of the original people of that continent.
It being Thursday it was the "Clap for Carers/NHS" night. I didn't clap but had a red bell and played that. There was quite a cacophony round here.
I rounded off the night listening to a strange piece of music - Pachabel's Canon like you have never heard if before - played on hundreds of train horns.
