A couple of visits done in Canterbury today. On the way I picked up some pipe tobacco in Faversham, and noticed that my favourite charity shop was open. They normally are closed on a Wednesday but due to the outside being repainted they must have decided to open up. This was a good move since I picked up a copy of Sarah Waters "Tipping The Velvet" for 25 pence.

It was less chilly but once I completed the visits I decided to scurry back to base. Glad I did too, as it was about to snow again as soon as I arrived in Teynham.

In two weeks I shall be back on the Sussex coast and will be looking forward to sampling some lovely real ales at The Evening Star during my week sojourn.

Hopefully, I would like  to catch up with my Finnish mate over the period, as well as looking forward to having convivial company with the first FTLC (Floating Tuesday or Thursday Lunch Club) of the year.

Sometimes we need a change of plan to make up even a better one. Such was the case with the following weekend when I was going back down to Brighton. Four weeks time it will be Easter and thus, to metaphorically kill a number of birds with one stone, I will be spending the week down on the Sussex coast.

The FTLC (Floating Tuesday or Thursday Lunch Club)  has been reactivated and will be initialised on the 28th March, plus the planned visit to Evening Star this Saturday will now be on the Easter Saturday, and I will return to Kent on the following Tuesday. Concurrently with this will be a heap of wonga from a fish with an angel, and that will make the week even more pleasurable.

I have been watching the last seasons of Battlestar Galactica  (BSG) on DVD which I borrowed from the lending library, The storyline is fascinating and the finale just brilliant. One of the better sci-fi TV series from across the waters

What i liked about the series was the idea that humans came from outer space to look for the lost planet of Earth and with their humanoid Cylon counterparts ditch all technology to start afresh on this Earth 150,000 years ago and that the young Hera child ( a hybrid between human and machine) becomes the mitochondrial Eve of our present human race..

And guess what? In the Philosophy and .. series of books there is one on Battlestar Galactica.
