Tuesday, June 24

It has rained all night. The temperature has dropped dramatically. The sound of a cuckoo in the trees woke me up at 6:30.

I have begun to persuade Shanti to let me take her out in the morning for a piss. I use some treats to trick her into following me. We have reached the stage where I don’t actually give her the treat until we reach the field, by which point she has more interest in having a piss than eating the treat but takes it anyway.

It will continue to rain all day. I will spend the entire morning and some of the afternoon trying to work out what Simi has done to her laptop, which now complains that it needs a Bitlocker key because the “Secure Boot policy has suddenly changed”. I have spent the morning in the darkest corners of Entra and I cannot find a Bitlocker key anywhere.

What?

At some point during this nonsense I will decide to photograph the corner of the workroom. Perhaps it happened during a moment of reflection. Ho ho ho.
