[The King of Prussia]

1. "Do not exceed the stated dose" by Peter Lovesey

He's an excellent writer, but it's a collection of short stories - and I just don't like short stories that much.

My second dose - Astra Zeneca - isn't due till 6th June - but the country is opening up further on Monday and we're going to take advantage. A neighbouring village has 2 good book shops so we plan to visit on Thursday.

Generally things seem to be going well - cases and hospitalisations down, and while deaths were up slightly that's almost certainly a consequence of delayed reporting over Easter. We've even booked to go to a couple of gigs at the end of the Summer.

Still, of course, having the nagging fear that Johnson and his chums will find a way to fuck this up.
