And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed…

… — if all records told the same tale — then the lie passed into history and became truth.

The cheerio party went very well and lots of people turned up. If you were there I really appreciated it.

Especiale thanks to Milnorc, Peasland and Keira for giving me stylin' things to put in my new flat (photo scans will follow sometime this century). And to those who scribbled in the book and took nice polaroids. And to Ryan especially for clearing up and making the aftermath bearable.

Saturday didn't happen, Sunday was a non-day and Monday was very tough. Today was pretty good though.

I am now going through paperwork and figuring out what I need to do before I disappear flathunting for a week or so. The trip down is on a sleeper train – first class, so I don't have to share a cabin with Farty McStranger – which is quite exciting.

And I found a clever website where they've overlaid tube lines on Google Maps, looks useful. Will let you know how it goes.
