Goodnight Irene

So there I was, worring about my son J who is in Princeton and was therefore directly under the flight path of Hurrcane Irene. Turns out the hurricane downgraded itself a bit so it wasn't as devastating as expected and all that happened was that J had a short power cut.

At home, in Yorkshire, we had an eleven hour power cut due to an underground fault they couldn't locate. Finally got power again at 11 p.m, but was so settled with my candlelit room and a perfectly adequate book light that I didn't bother switching anything on. Finished 'Gaudy  Night' by Dorothy L Sayers all in one lump.
