Secondly, I've been shopping. I've been to a certain specialist retailer in London to buy something that I couldn't get in Bracknell, Maidenhead or Reading. I can now use this new purchase to help me write some fanfic I've undertaken.
Thirdly, I've been to a church fete, where I've met a certain couple of burger-sellers and assisted them by running errands in return for burgers. I also had several tickets from the tall dark Italian gentleman running the tombola stall, and totally failed to win any bottles of anything.
I did sundry other pottering around in London too.
While all this has been going on, I've also been involved in a long exchange of emails with one of my clients, where I've found myself repeatedly explaining that AOL have a long record of blocking perfectly legitimate incoming emails as spam, including taking an IP address that they've previously whitelisted in one ruleset and proceeding to block it in a different ruleset. I've told them that one of the most reliable fixes for their problem is to change all their out-of-office email addresses to use a provider other than AOL.
