Civilized Sunday

Sunday afternoon. Sitting at the kitchen table with my coffee, lazily surfing some of my favourite blogs. EPI in the next room, making pictures as only he can. AAH off working, in the place I dare no longer rant about for obvious reasons. The rest of the girls have gone north. In the other room, the washing machine hums. Outside the window, the city is uncharacteristically quiet.

In other parts of the country, people are living in tents and partying up a storm. Media delivers up tales of woe: One man's skull is broken, two girls have been raped, ill-equipped campers have taken cover from the weather.

Later on, we will throw a leg of lamb on the barbecue and open a bottle of red wine. And enjoy the fact that we can sleep late tomorrow.

Currently 10°C and cloudy in the capital. Sun came up at 04.50 and will set at 22.15.
