HORROR!!!
i am feeling slightly emotional from the tiredness / jetlag.
which might explain why i was crying in the car, listening to the astronaut on radio 4 talking about looking back to earth as a night turned to day and listening to the song his wife had sent him (which he sang at their wedding) "…you're just too good to be true, can't take my eyes off of you…i love you baby…"
returning from andy's garage in the west, with a new car battery, i am chancing radio 2 for some light entertainment and catch sanctimonious jeremy vine talking about people who use and abuse ketamine.
i am unfortunate enough to still be listening when jeremy changes the subject and gets people to phone in about their experiences of having to give a eulogy at some loved one's funeral.
which ends with a widower breaking down in tears, half way through reciting the eulogy he read out at his wife of 48 year's funeral.
the christmas carols being pumped through the tinny, in-store PA at tescos is NOt helping
i console myself by eating many mandarins.
