birfday sew on patches arrived, noise cancelling ear phones ordered because why get all anxious about noise when I can do something immediate about it, some art books attained, and a biography of Hemingway by Anthony Burgess, which I thought looked interesting.
I don’t mind train noise, I do mind the noise from the bridge construction, it echoes and vibrates, I also think there’s some 60Hz electric hum.
Item: Burgess is actually a bloody good writer. Item: Hemingway was an arsehole. Put the two together and you have a challenging read … if you are at all politically correct. Watch out for Burgess’ masterly command of the artform of sarcasm. It’s illuminating.

I love Burgess as a writer ( and one of the few I quote on the regular ) and yes, Hemingway was an arsehole. That’s why I bought it. 😊
