Day 613


Aka Friday 5th October 

Woke early feeling sick, which being swiftly progressed to being sick, so I didn’t really get up to too much today, including not being able to keep my plan to meet up with a friend and see Venom...
…I mostly watched some TV (but without paying much attention to what I was watching, except episode three of Season Three of the ‘The Good Place’, which is still fun and involving, I was on tenterhooks when Trevor the demon appeared and targets our heroes so that they'll act in such a manner that they end up being sent back to The Bad Place) and doing the G2 crossword:



… and the crossword nosedive continued on Friday, with needing to cheat on eight of the 24 clues, I just couldn’t get wring the answers out of the clues, but I did learn that ‘Bray’ is a ‘Berkshire village with a 16th-century vicar celebrated in legend and song’ (although I have no idea what that legend or song is!), that a ‘reefer’ is a ‘double-breasted jacket for a man’ and that the ‘mastiff’ is a ‘large short-haired dog breed’. Although I didn’t get it, I did like ‘land in water’ (19 across) for ‘isle’, I thought it meant to land a plane in water, not physical land!
