This week I met up with my ex sister-in-law and her sister-in-law in Lincoln. Marjorie lives in California; she had returned to her native Scotland to do some ancestry research and was travelling down to Suffolk. We had a coffee at <a href="https://www.thecollectionmuseum.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Collection</a>; a tour of the cathedral and lunch in the castle cafe. The weather was described as dreich (Scots word meaning dreary or bleak).

Don't worry you're not drunk the last photo was taken by a young person in the castle cafe and they had a strange idea about vertical.

This week I received my new office chair. I've waited for over 12 weeks for this to come from Hong Kong. It's based on a classic <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_and_Ray_Eames" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charles and Ray Eames</a> design. Not an original but still a lovely, comfortable design.

The old office chair will find its way to the Hospice charity shop when I get a spare moment next week.
