friday
horsemouth is back from the village (carrots, peas, bread, hereford times). he was just listening to the world at one news but then it turned to COP 30 (where the haggling is intense but of course you can't haggle with nature, you can't bargain with flooding or drought).
doubtless at some point a deal that is a masterpiece of the diplomat's art will be done or the best face will be put on the failure to agree a deal. alok sharma (chair of COP 26) may cry, he may not cry (ok probably now that he is safe in the lords he won't have to cry).
ok horsemouth's mum is back from the village hall quiz/ fish and chip supper (she was back quite late he was beginning to get worried). horsemouth was listening to dave webb's technodub set (and very good it was too).
saturday - sunday: these are rain all day days. looks like it is going back to warm and wet.
saturday
if horsemouth were keen he would be going to the ledbury library sale - on this week but starting today. but as you have heard him say before he has enough books (he just misses the thrill of the chase). that would be a bus journey into hereford and then a train over (and blah)
further to discussion of train journeys the tickets have arrived to take horsemouth and his mum to birmingham for his brother's youngest's graduation ceremony. his mum will then travel on and horsemouth will return to the wilds (and the reverse strategy for the return journey). the tickets for the reverse journey have arrived also.
he can't see any reference on them to being with a railcard or not (horsemouth has a railcard), he dares say that time will tell.
in between horsemouth will have to make journeys back from hereford and into hereford using the local bus service. wednesday might present a problem. he may have to walk to pontrilas to do this.
sunday
the journey documented in werner herzog's book of walking in ice begins. it will last until december 14th.
