Diary Tuesday 15th January 2019
The local near sell-by date food collection today, which was handy with the cupboards running low.
Diary Wednesday 16th January 2019
A visit to the community centre for what I took to be the first job club session of the week. It is not unusual for no one to turn up to supervise this, and the computers at the centre can be used even without the tutors present, but the next day would reveal a surprise.
Diary Thursday 17th January 2019
A follow up visit to the job club which was supervised today but I learned that the Wednesday job club was now officially discontinued for lack of availability of the tutors.
Diary Friday 18th January 2019
I went out on a pub sign photo taking walk today, chasing after about nine bars, but on a bus route where services run an hour apart, so in a few cases I took long walks between signs. It went well early on but the weather got painfully cold as sleet kicked in later on.
Diary Saturday 19th January 2019
A day in today, photo editing, writing and later on starting the final edit needed from me for my book when the PDF proofs arrived.
Diary Sunday 20th January 2019
More book editing and the joy of sending them on to the publisher. In a week or so I’ll be sending out advance copies to potential reviewers. A shopping expedition completed the active part of the day.

That's really awesome that the final editing on the book is done and soon you'll have advance copies. That makes the whole week right there.

@xander6464 I'm going on Amazon to order 1,000,000.000 copies on day one I'm reminded of this rather sweet old phone book advert
The classic Yellow Pages advert starring JR Hartley - first shown in 1983. Fly Fishing... by JR Hartley!

@JohnRoberts the job club is very badly run now - it was very good until recently

@arthurchappell I think that this comment is for me. I had the feeling the job club is very badly run.
