It featured two things of note which I wish to record.
1) I spent this morning working at the Greenwich Fan Museum with their conservator, and will now be working there one day a week between 10.30 am and 5 pm (unpaid), with an actual conservator, doing actual fan conservation work.
2) I found out that an old school friend of mine, Amy Rodger, is now the Lib Dem parliamentary candidate for East Lothian. I may, one day soon, know a real life MP.
These two things make me feel strangely happy, and convinced that the world is a somehow not unfriendly place.
ps - Amy can read this, so any of your out there with different political views - and I'm looking at my dubiously Tory-minded boyfriend too - be nice! *nods firmly*
