Togetherness

We've just waved goodbye to Fuad, Rozita, Fifi and Fafa after an evening of good food and the usual silliness. Mak Ndak's attempts to imitate the starting position for a fencer (Fifi has adopted fencing as her CCA) evoked general mirth. Fuad and I enjoyed watching several repeats of United's goals against Fulham.

All this in stark contrast to the solitary narrator of the opening of Murdoch's The Sea, The Sea which I'm enjoying but not making any great progress with. The funny thing is that I can see a version of my life in her protagonist, a road not taken. Fortunately, so fortunately.

Sometimes happiness is just a lucky, undeserved accident.
