A BBC journalist article today on her self-isolation 20 years ago having been treated with radioactive iodine for an over-active thyroid:

Back in the mid 1990s I had the same treatment though no hand holding 
Easier though for me than the journalist as live by myself. I had arranged to have a large client job to do at home during that time, much as the journalist had arranged to do a lot of marking exam papers. I remember a client coming round to see me - I didn't let him in and shouted through the front window as to why

Good morning everyone it's a bright morning at the moment but it won't be long until the rain sweeps in. I hope the weather is better where you are.
Enjoy your day everyone
Max Von Sydow, the film actor, has died, he was 90.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/ent...inment-arts-51803195
I've seen very few of his films though Ingmar Berman's "The Seventh Seal" (1957) is a genuinely great fllm. A grim film about death and the Black Death is, if you understand it, actually quite uplifting. Far far better than any of the parodies of it. Back in 1995, the Vatican issued a list of films to mark 100 years of cinema. Not surprisingly, it's on that list of their 45 greatest films.

Gloucestershire University's prospectus for potential students has gone green. No longer printed on paper, but now digital. And students will also get a paper pouch (recycled paper) containing wildflower seeds.

Quite sunny here at present though forecast to become cloudy.
Although weather stays fairly unsettled in my part of the country until Sunday, as from Monday the forecasters think that it will become much more settled - at long last
I hope everyone has a good day
For those of you who were fans of Downton Abbey, ITV's new series Belgravia, which starts on Sunday, is a must. Same writer and, other than set in 1836 and a different cast, is a smiliar series.
There's a preview article on the Radio Times site if you want to know more:
