This edition of The Week That Was is brought to you by Camel Filters cigarettes. They’re not for everybody, but then they don’t try to be…

Happy International Tea Day to all you tea drinkers. I can’t, it makes my heart race.
We’re getting ready for some major renovation work here at Chez Holton. First step: putting in a shower that I don’t have to climb to get into. Don’t know exactly when that starts, but then that’s Mary’s job. I’m still downstairs while all of that is going on. I just transfer money when asked.
At some point I will need to go upstairs. We’re replacing the computer table, meaning we have to take all the stuff off the old one, including the computer. That will be my job. Mary will need to do all the stuff that requires getting on the floor (e.g. unplugging stuff). I’m not sure when that will be.
Anyway, that’s all the news. Time for
