Whose Hall?
Whose Hall?
Got up this morning feeling shattered and hungover - really must cut down on the booze. Or maybe it’s a bug. Went to make some coffee, but then remembered I’d run out. So had to make do with tea, as a result of which I’ve still got a splitting headache. Having burnt the toast, I decided to opt out of today and have a day off, as my next assignment isn’t due in for a fortnight, much to my relief. Should really have gone to Tesco’s, but couldn’t be bothered with the hassle on a Saturday, so went for the easy option and stayed in instead.
I’ve finally decided it’s time I saw more of England, so this afternoon I started reading a bit about Cambridge. The book I’ve got talks about loads of people, the vast majority of whom I’ve never even heard of, but I have to admit that lots of the places it mentions do seem worth seeing. I didn’t know that Grantchester was so picturesque. Nor did I know that there’s a famous tearoom there. The Orchard. Really must go with my colleagues sometime, but I’d much rather we waited until the better weather. And then, of course, there’s King’s College Chapel, and all that stuff about Henry VIII – not to mention all his unfortunate wives. Horrendous.
Should really make an effort and go to London - even more to see there. It’s just that it seems so much hassle, and it’s always so hectic there. But I know I’m being a bit pathetic. I just wish I could get my act together - I get quite annoyed with myself at times.
But that’s more than enough of thinking about culture for one day. I think that tonight I’ll just chill in front of the telly. Nothing depressing, though. So definitely not the News. Maybe I’ll watch a film – something light. Or maybe just some sport… Oh, and I see that there’s a documentary on BBC5: “Flying Bikes: the transport of the future?” Intriguing - I quite fancy a flying bike….

今天早上起床后,感覺心力交瘁,宿醉難耐–真的必須減少酒量。或者說,這是個錯誤。我去煮了點咖啡,但后來想起我的咖啡已經(jīng)喝完了。所以只好用茶來湊合,結果我還是頭痛欲裂。燒了吐司后,我決定今天不干了,休息一天,因為我的下一個任務還有兩個星期才到期,這讓我松了一口氣。 我真的應該去樂購超市,但在周六的時候,我不想麻煩,所以選擇了簡單的方式,留在家里。
我終于決定是時候多看看英國了,所以今天下午我開始讀一些關于劍橋的書。我拿到的這本書談到了很多人,其中絕大多數(shù)人我都沒有聽說過,但我不得不承認,書中提到的很多地方似乎都值得一看。我不知道格蘭切斯特是如此風景如畫。我也不知道那里有一個著名的茶室。果園。有機會一定要和我的同事一起去,但我更希望我們等到天氣好的時候再去。當然,還有國王學院教堂,以及所有關于亨利八世的東西–更不用說他所有不幸的妻子。太可怕了。
真的應該努力去倫敦–那里有更多東西可看。只是這似乎太麻煩了,而且那里總是那么忙。 但我知道我有點可悲。我只是希望我能夠振作起來–我有時會對自己感到很惱火。
但是,今天對文化的思考已經(jīng)夠多了。我想今晚我就在電視前冷靜一下。不過,沒有什么壓抑的東西。 所以絕對不是新聞。也許我會看一部電影–輕松的東西。哦,我看到BBC5臺有一部紀錄片:“飛行自行車:未來的交通工具?” 令人感興趣的是–我相當喜歡一輛飛行自行車…。
