awake early, it is night, it is four in the morning according to illuminated square face of the small device by the bedside.
Too early.
The heating system has broken down today, there can be no hot morning shower or anything now. Not untill the maintenance men return. With the spare parts, and their bill following a week later.
Sleep on , untill seven, get up, and read the mail. There are seious things happening in the world now, and the brothers are fighting again over idiocies. In Ireland. And the Turks are turning their backs on democracy, there is no peace and the sun is shining outside.
Outside, there is a hum of the machinery, workmen digging up more of the road, laying their enormous black-clad pipes for the towns centralised heating system. They have a generator for their welding apparatus, and further down, towards the church, they are cobbling the road again, back to the situation it was in before they started.
The week after next the way to work will be free again.
but between then and now a week in France, west of Paris.
Drink a fresh cup of coffee, take the daily pill, tinnitus hiss on the right, write this daily diary of nothing special, the son is making some tiny computers work for him.
that is nice.
And it is a peaceful morning.
Bright sun outside
Ticking clocks, ticking clocks from France. Electric ATO , Brillie, a hobby, Electromagnetic clocks will run for years on one battery.

A face to be restored.
