jazzy_daveWell the weather had some influence on what i did today. It rained this morning but the afternoon turned out better and thus i popped over to Faversham. Had a couple of ciders in Wetherspoons.
Bought a book from the Faversham Society shop for £1.50, a hardback called “They Never Said That”, which is a book of fake quotes, misquotes and misleading attributions (Oxford University Press). Plus, i sold some unwanted books down at Past Sentence.
One such misquote is that famous line from Hamlet, which correctly is “Alas! poor Yorick!I knew him,Horatio.”, and does not contain the word “well” after the “I knew him”.
So not much really for my birthday. It will all kick off this Saturday when Mike comes down.
