Senses working overtime #531

1 Second week of the study break:

The first week of the study break kicked off with me marking students' work, this second week ended with planning my five classes for the next 6 weeks. That's a good feeling!


2 Watched: Alone UK and Alone Australia




We finished watching season 2 of Alone Australia (started while at Mabelle and Gav's gaff) and then moved onto season 1 of Alone UK. Slight change for that one with 11 ordinary Brits surviving/ lasting from 4 hours to 30ish days. Brilliant!


3 Reading: God Only Knows (The story of Brian Wilson, The Beach Boys and the California myth) - David Leaf




I've read this in an earlier edition when I borrowed a library copy years ago, but I had to buy this 2024 version while visiting Santa Rosa (Copperfields Books). Good to reread given the recent passing of Brian.


4 Listening: Procol Harum Live in Concert




5 Reading: The Visitor - Lee Child




I'm pretty sure I've also read this one years ago but that's the great thing with his books - because of the frothiness and easiness of the style, you can reread and enjoy them all over again. This is a great study break book.
