so fahey lifted this for one of his songs.
horsemouth is hiding from the virus with a tinfoil hat on (day)/ paper bag over his head (night). he will be back when he can get back or to get his jab or when he needs to for work. tbh there's not anything more he can do in london under lockdown than he can do here (work online, fart about on the internet, watch telly). it's good to keep his folks company and they are in the middle of the countryside so it's fairly easy social distancing.
he chatted to sten on the phone. he did a co-op meeting. he got ian to take a meter reading. it's been a cold winter, gas consumption is up, with a bit of luck the rest of it will be mild and it will all balance out.
that said he has met and talked to two people up on the common. (this is not ideal horsemouth should be living in splendid isolation he doesn't want to risk bringing the virus back to his parents (even though they've had the first jab).
horsemouth has a cold. (blocked nostril sometime sore throat).
today is a beautiful spring morning - the celandine is up (ficaria verna). there was a frost and there's mist. it looks like some olafur eliasson exhibit. horsemouth awaits breakfast (see how they are spoiling him) and then he will go for a walk.
in the afternoon he will work (and then that's him for the week). next week he expects to be much the same. there's a chance the students will start having face to face labs after march the 8th (but horsemouth thinks it is already too late in the academic year and they have only a few weeks left of teaching to go anyway).
if so horsemouth will have an excuse to return to the seaside towns (otherwise he's going to have to wing it).
last night he watched lady snowblood to go with il grande silenzio another snow set revenger (he wonders if he can find mccabe and miss miller anywhere).
