Forewords (The Good Fight) The real preface Friday 21/3/2025 15.51 I originally put a few words together outlining the genesis of this diary and a few ideas behind, and it will appear below. March 9 it was, so nearly two weeks ago. I hadn’t even finished writing the main pages yet, although I was deluding …
Chapter 8 Week 3 : 15th to 21st of March : Pretending to Fill Time (66 Sleepers To Summer) Saturday 15/3 6.31 up a little too early. Went to sleep exhausted fairly early too and then had two sequences of what felt like the deepest sleep I have had maybe since the injury. But this …
Chapter 7 Week 2 : 8th to 14th of March : Locked Down (Morning Ghosts) Saturday 8/3 7.12 before brekkie this time. Another mixed night. More works on the tracks but less noisy once more or I am getting used to it. It finished earlier too. I managed to keep myself in bed and extend …

Chapter 3 Thursday 27/3 : A Busy Day On One Leg (My Ves Y Sufres) I made myself a list of things to do. A fair amount, just have to decide in which order and the timings, but first the routine things like breakfast, brush teeth and shave. I am not sure how to wash …
Chapter 2 Wednesday 26/2 : The Day After (Don’t Go To Pieces) I had a fairly bad night, predictably. Pain and the day ahead to plan. Not sure how much I did in the morning. Did I manage to shower? No I think I dispensed until Thursday evening after all, when it proved technically tricky …
I was debating (with myself obviously) about doing a new post, as I was being very deep (not really)/metaphysical the other day and thought maybe I could wonder about faith/God/religion, probably not very controversially anyway.
