A little quiet time

My stupid ears have become completely blocked, and I am temporarily quite deaf. I can only hear the radio and TV if they are turned fully up, antibiotics apparently having little effect. It is strange not even being sure how loud to pitch my own voice.

Otherwise little going on today other than a cheeky day's freelance from home. Wrote nine letters. Then off to experience the odd quietness of the supermarket. One of the things I can suddenly hear is the thud that passes up through my body as my foot hits the pavement. And the sound of my breathing.

Unsurprisingly, I spent a quiet night in.
