Sitting at the local park is good for the spirits I think. It does sometimes make me sad with might-have-beens but today it's just enjoyable and the weather is perfect.
Spotted a kid who I suspect had albinism - dead white hair, huge sunhat, very dark sunglasses with an elastic band to keep them on, and he moved as if he had low vision. It felt nice to spot 'one of us' playing, even though I didn't say hi.

Spotted this okra at the supermarket ... for the unbelievably expensive price of $13.88 per kilo. Flatmate almost died laughing at the price compared to the usual cost in Pakistan!! If it wasn't for pesky things like customs officials it'd almost be worth stuffing a suitcase full next time she went home, you could probably carry $350 worth of the stuff in one suitcase I think.
Will post this now - see if the post via email works.
