The only excitement today was the visit of the TV technician, who looked to be about 15, but he said he'd been doing it for three years, so he must have been at least 18. Anyway, as predicted, he had it fixed in five minutes. Actually, he was to come between 12 and 4, and arrived after 4pm, which was a nuisance, but I nearly hugged him in my gratitude.

In the afertnoon, JR took Archie out again, while I watched tennis. And then I watched the news! Iran started bombing American airbases in Qatar and Bahrain. Let's hope, as being optimistically reported, that it was 'orchestrated' so as not to kill any American soldiers and cause American retaliation. 

What a world!
