Monday 28th October

We haven't had the thunderstorm I was expecting, I don't know if it has passed over.  I've seen the waves crashing over the Marina at Brighton.

I was just running round town this morning and I went water walking.  Pattisue rang and suggested lunch at the Bricktown Brewery.  There is a big fund raising drive going on in the town in aid of the new municipal pool, which it is hoped will open next summer, and if one presented a voucher at this restaurant today - and she had two - they would donate 7% of the cost of the meal for the pool.

There is a film she is anxious to see, it has been released but is not showing in Shawnee.  Perhaps it won't, I said I would see it with her but I am not that keen.   It is about a man - an African American - who was a slave for fifteen years.   I don't get it.   Before the Civil War African Americans were slaves for a lot longer than fifteen years.   As it is not showing I can't look up a review, and I've forgotten the title.  Pattisue has read the book.

Just spent the rest of the day watching tv and crocheting.
