Happy Belated Birthday Mr C

Carlton behaving badly. The early 1990s

Well, Carlton, yesterday would have been your 84th birthday. And, if you had been here – I would have ignored it. We never did birthdays. We never did any holidays except the Summer and Winter Solstices.  

It was a lovely warm springy day today. But, I spent it all inside working on a little project for The Asylum. My contribution to our annual resident fundraising campaign to give a Xmas bonus to our staff who work for low wages and no tips. Making a generous contribution is the least I can do. Making a few little “advertising” videos is just a little lagniappe. 

Tomorrow, I will decide where to stay in Dubai. I will spend a bit more than usual because it will be so hot that I might well spend more time than usual inside. Also, Dubai doesn’t seem to be in the least bit “walkable”. So, a hotel that is connected to a shopping center/metro stop might be worth a few extra dirhams. And then it will be time to decide what to do with my nine days between coming in to and going out of Great Britain.
