Autumn Tree
Monday, November 1st, 2010 07:27 pmDay 305 Took my car in for its MOT & service today, which it passed. The place I go to is a couple of miles from work, so I drop it off and then walk up to work, which is a pain cos the last bit is uphill and because I'm not used to it I'm sweaty and yeuch for the rest of the day. But I did see some nice autumn trees, including this one, which was near the dealership:

Twitter is making me sad. Quite apart from feeling like I'm the only space person on Earth who isn't gathering for the (delayed) tweetup in Florida (all the Space Tweeps tweeting 'OMG I met this astronaut, that astronaut, OMG it's Camilla/Nicole/Ron/Swanny' etc), all the vitriol that's been fired at Stephen Fry is making my angry and worried. Angry, cos it's from people who ought to know better (and newspapers who ought to have an understanding of the Disability Discrimination Act maybe) and worried because this has been a big year for Stephen Fry, and perhaps not all good. I hope he is surrounded well by people who care for him. I don't mind not hearing from him on Twitter but I would like to believe he's happy, which I'm not convinced is the case right now.
