It Stings A Bit!
The price. Probably the content too. But the price! You know…if it didn’t feel as though the good stuff over the past few years was all but dead, then maybe I’d have felt able…willing… But now it all does feel in the past. I’ve spent a lot of this lockdown in mourning. Mourning some of…
The Longterm?
How does one define how ‘long’ the longterm is? I ponder because in Jim’s post today he talks about the “Book Of Brilliant Things” or whatever it’s going to end up being called.
