📺 Time to settle in and have a quiet Friday night watching Foundation and the season finale of Star Trek SNW. 🖖🏻

Today’s badge on the jacket.

A square lapel badge pinned to a dark jacket. It has “Don’t be a dick be kind” written on four rows with multicoloured letters.

From the way the two person crew passed too closely and fouled their oars with the four person crew the private schools have new rowing crews training on the river.

A work from home day means commute time is replaced with cat time and that’s a 200% better use of time. 🐱

A black and white cat curled up on a man’s legs that are covered by a multi coloured crochet blanket. The blanket is made from yellow, dark blue, light blue, pink, green, brown and white yarn.

Time to laze on the couch with a glass of red and watch the two new episodes of Only Murders in the Building (S3E1&2). The combination of Steve Martin, Selena Gomez and Martin Short has been brilliant through seasons one and two and now Meryl Streep is in the mix! 📺

My personal mail was constantly bombarded with newsletters, morning/daily news summaries and emails from companies to the point that every time I opened it I was just deleting without reading.

I unsubscribed from a lot of things over the weekend and my inbox was wonderfully quiet this morning.

One cork missing but the sign of a great lunch. Nearly four hours at one of my favourite Italian restaurants. 🍷

Three corks in a small white bowl. The corks have the name of the wineries on them.

🇮🇹 Heading off to a long lunch at one of my favourite Italian restaurants. Very good wine list with three pages worth from Mt Etna.

Star Trek: SNW Subspace Rhapsody was a great bit of fun! The mix of serious and silly this show continues to deliver is one of its strengths. The emotional turmoil of Spock and La’an really shone through and was so consistent with their story arcs. As was the lighter side of Number One. 📺🖖🏻

I told myself I probably shouldn’t visit the pen shop on the way home as I really don’t need any more pens just at the moment.

A little look won’t hurt I thought as I strolled by.

Then I saw this red Visconti Rembrandt roller ball and well now I have a new pen. 🖋️

A red pen with a silver pocket clip and band in the middle. The clip has “Visconti” on it. The pen is sitting inside a grey felt lined box.
