I got to read more of The Oxford History of the Crusades because I took the bus home, but didn't read as much as I'd hoped. Fascinating, though.

Then there were two treats waiting for me when I got home: William Shakespeare: His Life and Times, the miniseries with Tim Curry that

acampbell told me about. I wonder if I can find someone who'd like to watch it with me?

That was exciting enough; but there was also a beautiful hand-knit scarf in shades of blue sent to my by my friend Helen in Australia. She said it was in thanks for sending her used stamps - ! Bless her, she didn't need to do that. Sending her used stamps is nothing. The scarf is a work of art. How did she know what colours I most love?
