Day 1829

Set about converting the Microsoft-supplied sample VB MDI text editor into a HTML editor while listening to the Secret History tape. Latter very good - inevitable omissions and telescopings of course, most obviously in the Cloke Rayburn/Laura Stora/general drug direction, and most obviously of all in the omission of any reference to the narrator's rampant prescription drug abuse.

in the afternoon that play Tunes of Glory was on R4, about the alcoholic colonel in the highland regiment - excellent stuff.

PM was on after that, sign of the election times. This week's dismal poll is apparently another blip, 2 weeks in a row that's happened. Wish T. Blair wasn't so right-wing, but then they said the same about Harold Wilson in 1964

In the evening to the Crown with M and E. Good conversation about Quantum Leap - E. shared my enthusiasm for the bigamist ep and its third-family final twist.
