7:42 to Shinagawa

http://stuart.woodward.jp/?p=3074

If you want to be at the front of the queue for the 7:42 Express to Shinagawa which starts at Kurihama you have to be on the platform at 7:25. You need to know that it will come in on platform 3 not 4 as it won’t be on the sign board yet. You also need to know it will be labeled as going to Kanazawa-Bunko rather than Shinagawa. You also need to know that the Yokosuka line will come an reverse into the siding at 7:19 blocking the road to the station for a few minutes.

Virtual Dreams

http://stuart.woodward.jp/?p=3073

I was having a dream last night where I remember thinking, "this dream would make a fantastic science fiction story", but when I woke and remembered it ,it was laughably bad. I was dreaming that people were somehow getting getting trapped in their VMWare virtual OS images..

What is that smell?

http://stuart.woodward.jp/?p=3072

I went to doctors on Saturday for my monthly appointment and mentioned that I had a cough and sore throat and he looked up my nose, dabbed my throat with Iodine and sent me away with 5 more different tablets to take. I wasn’t feeling so bad when I went there but, actually, after taking the antibiotics and the mucus thinner; excuse the gory details, I feel a lot better than I did. I guess you can get used to feeling run down. While I was in the shower this morning I noticed a really weird smell, I couldn’t locate it but when I got out, I found that Chizu was cooking Brocolli in the kitchen. If you loose your sense of smell gradually, you don’t notice it in the same way you would if you lost your sight, sense of touch or hearing. But when your sense of smell comes back you get affronted by all sorts of smells. Tonight I noticed the smell of strawberries in the refridgerator and it was quite overpowering. Zen’s sense of smell is amazing. He detected Chizu was secretly eating a sweet in the kitchen several meters away and went in to demand one. c.f How Can I Accurately Test a Patient for Loss of Ability to Smell?

A dream within a dream

http://stuart.woodward.jp/?p=3071

I told Zen this morning the plot behind a time-travel movie. At first he didn’t get it but suddenly his eyes lit up and he shuddered when he understood what I meant. He decided that he didn’t want to meet himself in the past. Later in the conversation he asked, "Where is it that we are seeing when we are dreaming?", which kind of says to me that up and until then he thought he was seeing a different physical place to the real world in his dreams ala L.P.Lovecraft’s "Dreamlands"..

I found my paternal Grandmother and Great-Grandfather on this site from 1891 census: Warwickshire Ancestors Project 1891 Civil Parish of Long Itchington, Eccl.

I heard that my Father’s mother was called Fanny and her father was "Shepherd Long". We had a part of rusted sheep sheers, probably belonging to Shepherd Long but I think they were thrown out when we moved from Southway.
