good morning! good morning!
horsemouth is up and about (the day begins). the binmen have been and gone (hail the binmen).
last night horsemouth found puzzle (aka. l’uomo senza memoria a 1974 Italian giallo film directed by duccio tessari) online and watched it. he then listened to the fragments of fear giallo podcast about it.
the theme reminds horsemouth of bus stop by the hollies (as lifted by blue oyster cult). puzzle is an uncharacteristic giallo for its warm feel and its strong female protagonist (despite ostensibly being about a man and his loss of memory). of course there's still a chainsaw murder. it is set on or around april 23rd san giorgio's (st.george's day) in porte fino (which looks beautiful) - you can tell this because they encounter a folkloric bonfire at one point with the locals singing.
yesterday horsemouth went out for a long walk (something like 5 miles) with TG down to the thames opposite the dome via the canal system calling in at cody dock for an ice cream. TG admitted that he was reading again and produced a list of decent authors dostoyevsk (a nasty tale), maupassant (one about fake jewellery that horsemouth has read recently), chekhov.
either TG has excellent taste in literature or he has been researching horsemouth's tastes in literature. horsemouth needs to get reading again.
time passes and we get closer to the meeting of the communal endeavour when the lie of the land will become clearer and the top jobs will be allocated. really only the chair matters. once that is decided horsemouth can stop worrying.
sten's health is recovered so he is off working in the morning (and shooting guns).
