Paperwork

 Or rather computer work...to the gallery by bus as the glass artist added the pots that will be in an exhibition in August to an Excel spreadsheet.

We have to use that...and a couple of people insist on using word documents....which, if like half of us you are on android or apple or Linux....you can't open!!  He'll send me a copy in PDF form later!!

A nice bit of exercise as it is a twenty minute walk from bus stop to gallery.

Going past the barley field on the way back to the bus stop at lunchtime....


Harvested and the straw rowed...waiting for the baler.

Then back home after lunch in the café in Waterstones bookshop.  Shopping can wait!!

A quiet afternoon...sorting and pricing bike bits and more sewing...almost finished half  corner number three.

I gave a bag of assorted electronic liquorice and two dvd players to a younger man in the next small village..he is starting a business mending tech goods and spare cables will be handy.

I love the corn rows. There must be a lino cut in that design. I suspect you can get conversion apps for Word docs.

I love the look of that barley field. You certainly had another full day.

"electronic liquorice" -- I've never heard that term before, but it is appropriate!

I think that sounds like a delightful day.
Your young tech guru may come in handy one day 😉

...mending tech goods and spare cables beat taking them to the dump!

"Electronic liquorice" -- LOL! That's a perfect name for computer cables. I've just learned via your post that the UK spells licorice differently (liquorice) than we do in the USA (licorice). Who knew?

You can get MS Word for Apple products but I think you'd have to buy it, maybe as part of Microsoft Office. (We have it on our Apple computers at work.)

The barley field is very picturesque. Great photo. Walking is great for exercise but also for taking in all the beauty of the landscape. Our tech guy has built a successful business, and he even does house calls. Your new tech guy should do well.

Excel is my artistic medium!! Love the photo.

Just done a bit of research...In Linux you can access Word via Libre Office, and Android you can get something through Google play...both sound fairly recent.
