We broke a weather record today. It was the warmest October
1st ever recorded in Britain,
and in the process of reading about it I learned something. I never realised
that the term ‘Indian Summer’ originated in North America.
I always thought it was a term of colonial origin and referred to the Indian Subcontinent.

Sarah slowed her bike and exchanged a few words with me this
evening. She offered a bit of small talk, which sounded forced. Frankly, I wish
she hadn’t bothered, especially after this morning’s dismissive missive from
the Big P. ‘Dismissive missive’ was deliberate, by the way, in case you’re
wondering. Sounds a bit Gilbert and Sullivan, doesn’t it?

Remember my recent travels through the blogosphere in search
of a special talent? I think I might have found one. Time will tell.

New York
continues to press itself into my consciousness for some reason. I dislike
cities, but I should imagine NY has plenty of special talent tucked in between all
the stuff I would heartily dislike. Maybe I’ll go there some time and
conduct a search. I would probably need a guide, though. I was seventeen the
last time I went.
