Gorleston Cliffs parkrun.
It was a miserable morning: cold and drizzling.
Which makes it all the more amazing that I actually made it.

The third outing of the year was to London to see a show.
Fortune Theatre and ‘Operation Mincemeat’.
Operation Mincemeat was a World War Two mission to fool the Germans into thinking we were heading to Sardinia, when in fact the troops were heading to Sicily. It had a key role to play in the victory over Hitler. I’d never heard of it, but apparently it’s now taught in schools.
As for the show itself. Enjoyed it. Only five actors playing all the roles. Good songs. Funny. A tad camp at points. Well worth a watch.

‘Mudlarking’ by Lara Maiklem
Not really my find of book – but it was recommended and was actually physically given to me – so I gave it a go.
The author likes to go up and down the River Thames foreshore finding stuff, or Mudlarking, as it has come to be called.
The book was ok.
It follows her experience of mudlarking, interspersed with lots of historical stuff.
There’s also a ‘Mudlarking 2’ – I’m not going to bother.

‘Babel’.
Hundreds of stacked, secondhand analog radios – representing the confusion of languages and the accumulation of information.
