The Sittingbourne Scintillation

Apart from a moment this afternoon when we had hail stones coming down in Sittingbourne, on the whole, it has been a sunny , if blustery, day. Luckily I did not get caught in the downpour, which was accompanied by thunder and lightning.

I visited Sittingbourne library today , and took out a DVD to watch based on the book by Kazuo Ishiguro “Never Let Me Go” as part of it is based in Brighton. I also took out on loan James Attlee's book “Nocturne” (Penguin) which is described as a journey in search of moonlight and is a portrait of the enigmatic light increasingly endangered in our over-illuminated world.

The post arrived this morning with one item from Ebay, which I bought for 99p , a book by Charles Grave called “A Pipe Smoker' Guide” (Ikon 1969), a slim 120 page book to the pleasures of the pipe.

Transferred some money from PayPal into my bank account, and in Faversham sold some items, which will help to cover expenses over the weekend, and hopefully through to next Wednesday.

Tomorrow I am off to Chatham for a visit, and hope to pick up some cheap books on the way back and some more free records from the shop in Rainham. However, somewhat disappointed that my sales on the Play trade site are currently stagnant, whilst Discogs and Ebay are quite buoyant.
