Grey wet evening, at the end of a grey wet day. Only misty rain, but enough to keep me indoors scanning old negatives, for a fair bit of it.

I hear that the 64 year old thug that head-butted my aged (83 year old) father, is to be charged with assault. Broke my father's glasses, gave him a black eye, and possibly some other damage to that eye, and left him very shaken. Since then, my father, who's not the most mobile person these days, has hardly ventured out, and we suspect is quite depressed. Sad to hear of such things.
