Can't win 'em all

Noticeably busier on the roads and in the garage today. I read something somewhere that said the traffic during May was back to the levels we had in the 1950s, and that the amount of exhaust fumes we emitted was back to the levels of the early 1900s, when there were far fewer cars but those cars were far more polluting. Does that make sense? I hope so. Does anything make sense anymore, when we compare it to how things were 6 months ago? It’s all so very new and so very strange. Except it isn’t. Because most things are still the same, it’s just our places in the outside world that have altered.

Jesus, a brand new month and I’m talking nonsense already.

I’m having good thoughts, I’m just not articulating them in a way that makes them readable. So I might change the subject….

Over the weekend I watched ‘The Magnificent Ambersons’ which is one of the best films ever made, and then I watched ‘Cell’ which is definitely NOT one of the best ever. It’s an absolute mess. I very rarely bail out of a movie before it’s over, but I would quite happily have gone to bed after about 15 minutes of this tripe, and by the end I was wishing I HAD gone to bed after 15 minutes. I shall not write more about it or I shall be torturing myself further.

I promise these blogs will get better as the month goes on……
