So, 47 hoves into view (the title is binary for 47, apparently!) I have had a lovely day despite the fact that I have no voice: lush presents, three cakes from students (unheard of) delicious supper, more cake, and loads of lovely messages from my friends and relations.

Am surprisingly sad about Martin, but I think that's just the way it's going to be: a funny bastard, grief, said a wise friend of mine today.
