@hazardwarning I don't fully understand why it isn't an Oscar contender.

@matigo It was super fun, although the traffic noise around the interview might be a bit much. But there was nowhere else to do it.
Major expedition for today, to Richmond to interview a woman about her life on a working barge, to the Public Record Office in Kew for some historical research and to Kew Gardens to see an old friend and for fun. Pity the weather is no longer totally wonderful.
Ready for another day of tourism although the weather is not as perfect as it has been the past few days. Not sure what’s is on the agenda. Probably National Gallery and maybe British Museum. Oh, and I have a podcast to finish and publish, but that will have to wait until after The Main Squeeze has left.
@matigo I didn’t know you were a fan. I did read Infinite Jest once, to impress a woman. It didn’t work, which I’d probably just as well as we remain very good friends. I think I prefer his shorter things, and I wasn’t even tempted to try his final novel.
@matigo The Onion’s pastiche of the genre - A Very Fatal Murder - is very funny and spot on.
