Composite image with my location on the left and on the right, the quest: an empty cobbled street, in shadow, with a municipal building opposite. There are three courses of windows on the front, mostly with their blinds up. In the foreground is a pole with a clock on it showing just after 2pm.

Amazing that this quest was in the middle of the road right by one of our most-used bus stops.

I've just set up a couple of Alfred custom web searches, prompted by Wouter Groeneveld's post How To Search The Internet at https://brainbaking.com/post/2024/01/how-to-search-the-internet/ No idea yet whether I these will ever imprint themselves on my muscle memory, though I do want to try.

Such an amazing chain of events with such interesting consequences. Alas, neither of my parents were the diarying kind, but I definitely appreciate my own as an aide-memoire. Seeing what I did on this day is always fun.

Interesting to read Devastatia's IndieWeb Carnival entry, which opens with an account of The Breakfast Club, the day after we saw The Holdovers. We were talking about great high school movies of the past, and of course TBC was among them (also If, The History Boys etc). As a Boomer, I wonder how those and The Holdovers (set in 1971) come across to recent generations.

Composite image with my location on the left and on the right, the quest: a wide-andle photo of a wall missing most of its stucco at the bottom, revelaing ancient brickwork and two courses of windows, the lower ones barred, the uppwer ones with shutters. Above, a fence of glass panels.
