The latest planning exercise

Planning board, 12/5/25

Down the years I have acknowledged our Clare’s planning fetish. I share it, to some extent, but I tend to stick to one medium (a diary) whereas C.’s various lists, diagrams, files and so on spread and multiply. This board has just appeared in her half of the attic/office. This is planning as board game, as one of those models football managers or Napoleon would use to organise their troop movements. And it didn’t even appear until May — though I am guessing we will be seeing more of this even after 2025 has played out.

Walk planning, 17/5/20

I know I am not the only one to whom this has happened, but I have lost all the little things, outside my immediate home, that gave my life pleasure. Except one — and that one thing is walking, experiencing the countryside. I spent the day reading, planning, looking forward. That’s a large part of the fun, in fact.

And yes, I need the reading glasses to do it. So they can take their rightful place on the stage.
