The Sixtieth and Sixty First Days of Isolation

Sixtieth and Sixty First Days – the twenty fourth and twenty fifth days of working from home, and the seventh Bible Study video chat. Both days of work went well. I’m focussing better with my nephew back at school. He is enjoying being back at school and seeing his friends again. (The main problem might be with the bubblers being unavailable.) Bible Study was good too. Continuing through our study of Philippians with Chapter 3, another important passage of Scripture. Considering everything else as loss, compared to Christ…
Prayer – that everything would continue to go well with a first time pregnancy in the group. (Due in August.) Praise points: That school has gone back full time, also that the procedure on the melanoma went well.

Beginnings of 2020 - Doctor Who - An Unearthly Child (Rebooted)

An Unearthly Child (Rebooted)
London, 26 May 2005
It had been an ordinary day at Coal Hill School. “Good evening, Miss Wright,” a teen girl said.

“Could you wait, please Susan. I won’t be long,” Miss Wright requested.

“Sure,” Susan said.


Miss Wright was taking a while, so Susan took out her iPod and a speaker and started listening to some metal music.


“Susan?” Miss Wright asked when she came back.

Susan unplugged the iPod. “Oh, I’m sorry, Miss Wright. I didn’t hear you coming in. Aren’t they fabulous?”

“Who?” Miss Wright didn’t recognise the music that had been playing.

“It’s the Common Men Triumph. They’ve gone from eighteen to three.”

“Common Men Triumph are a metal music band. They started their career as John Smith and the Common Men,” the other, male, teacher said.

“You are surprising Mr. Chesterton. I wouldn’t have expected you to know that,” Susan said.

“I have an enquiring mind,” Mr. Chesterton explained. He placed a book in front of Susan.

“Is that the book you promised me?” she asked.

“Yes,” Miss Wright answered.

“Thanks,” Susan said. It’ll be interesting. I’ll bring it back tomorrow.

“That’s not necessary,” Miss Wright said. “Keep it until you have finished it.”

“I’ll have finished it.”

“I’m going to give Miss Wright a lift. There’s room for one more.”

“No thank you, Mr. Chesterton. I like walking through the dark. It’s mysterious,” Susan answered.

“Be careful, Susan. There’ll probably be fog again tonight. See you in the morning.”


The teachers having left, Susan opened the book and found something. “But that’s not right!”
