horsemouth demonstrates audacity of the intellect above his pay-grade

'what intellect can have had the audacity to judge who is better, and who is worse.' 

the heating is on (it is very firmly on). mr.sten is ill and has retired to bed in a proper old state. 

for all that it is on it makes very little difference to the warmth of the house - in most cases the radiators are either heating up air in corridors or so covered-over with kipple you can't tell whether they are on or not. a light refreshing breeze blows through the badly fitting sash windows and round the frame of the downstairs door. 

it make little difference to the warmth of the house (but it will provide a nice spike in the heating bill). 

nonetheless the house are well ahead of the increase in gas and electricity costs curve - they had already adjusted to the new charges before the government got round to offering its mitigating largesse (funded by you the humble tax payer rather than a tax upon the wealthy). the mitigating largesse is due to end (or be reduced) but may end up being extended or funded through benefits etc. (of no use to the mule). 

ok the government has extended the largesse by a few months. 

horsemouth is very proud of his house who have drastically reduced their consumption of electricity and gas (but have however seen bills rise). they have saved the government largesse and will be using it to subsidise them through the coming period without largesse. 

horsemouth awaits his bank statement (so he can see how he is doing) and later he awaits his savings statement (as above so below). he has made it to the weekend. and (as the day goes by and roll towards the equinox) he is making it out of winter. 

yesterday a discussion of love, devotion, surrender by john mclaughlin and carlos santana. horsemouth will freely admit it has its moments but on the whole he thinks the album with alice coltrane (illuminations) is much more successful - if in this he demonstrates audacity of the intellect above his pay-grade then he is sorry. he worries that he has failed to defend the album enough. 

he is due to go out for a wander with enza tomorrow (his first such wander since he got ill and his first in a long time) but he may be too ill (still). he was due to wander out with howard today (but again he thinks that is a bit previous also).
