Wednesday 12th August

I'm not normally at the hospital on Wednesdays now, but I noticed yesterday that there wasn't going to be a volunteer there today, so I rang Bill this morning, and he seemed pleased to accept the offer of my services;  I went round both floors then we had a long lunch, chatting, and that was very nice.

In the afternoon I knocked up some shortbread to take to a pool party an Emmanuel member was having this evening.   We're gradually getting back to normal at Emmanuel; tomorrow, Thursday there will be Communion, and normal Wednesday nights will resume next week.

So that has been my day.................and in the news...............

Mrs Clinton is in serious trouble.   She handed over her e-mail server - she didn't have a choice and didn't want the spectacle of agents marching into her house and grabbing it, which is what would have happened.

Apparently there are different levels of security markings on sensitive documents, "Top Secret" is the highest level - that is information which could seriously threaten the security of the US.  "Classified" is the lowest level, and there are two or three in between.    Late this evening it was found that someone on her staff tried to remove a "top secret" classification on an e-mail.   It is all a bit shrouded in mystery at the moment,  and it is going to take quite some time to get to the bottom of it all.
    

One hopes he can keep it going...........
