Logging Hours Rather Than Days In A Row
Reading Time: 2 minutesDuolingo and Babbel log days in a row, rather than the progress made in a day. The Kindle App counts days and weeks in a row. Kobo and Apple Books both log reading time. I want to dump Duolingo but I don’t want to lose my days in a row streak. Language…

With A view of the Mont Blanc
Reading Time: 2 minutesI’m afraid to open the veluxes because of the threat of finding yet another large spider. I don’t mind having to dispose of it, but I hate the idea of having one walking around without me knowing. A great alternative to open windows is to go for your daily walk. You’re far…

The Daily Walk – 100 Days of Consecutive Blogging.
Reading Time: 2 minutesWe walk daily to look into the distance, to have fresh air, and to think about things. We take our daily walk because it’s a habit. We take our daily walk because it is a way of travelling from one place to another, without necessarily changing location. Today is day 100 of…

Broken Stones, Good Weather and Autumn
Reading Time: 2 minutesToday as I looked at the ground I saw broken stones. The one in the image below is especially beautiful. I don’t know why there were more broken stones than usual. It seems that the conditions were right to bring the stones to the surface and for the farmers’ machinery to break…

What Do The Logs Show
Reading Time: < 1 minuteJoke: I was on the phone with tech support when I walked by these and I was asked “What do the logs show?” I had a double take before I understood he meant the web logs and other server logs. I then continued walking I am getting somewhere with my studies.…

I Don’t Need to Go For A One And a Half Hour Walk
Reading Time: < 1 minute”I don’t need to go for a one and a half hour walk. I said that to a neighbour before my walk. I could have cut it short, if it started to rain too heavily. Paradoxically for most of the walk it was grey and drizzling. Nothing to worry about. I…
