I spent the morning in Winchcombe, getting my hair cut, and visiting the Folk and Police Museum, which is small but very interesting. We had a friendly conversation with the volunteer manning the desk (a nice lady called Barbara), and I look forward to going back to read some of the folders of detailed information on various aspects of local history.

Then home, to hear the train whistle from steam railway - I'm sure one day it'll get old but at the moment it's still fun to hear.

Other than that, work has been okay this week, as I actually started serving genuine customers. The concentration required to get it right every time is pretty tiring sometimes, but you really do get a wide cross-section of the human race, all with their own stories to tell.

The nice lady called Barbara was quite probably my Mum - although it's possible there are other Barbaras who volunteer there, I suppose. She's short, with glasses, and she's the main local expert there - she wrote all the folders, and does all the school visits etc.

I felt the need to go back and check out those folders too!

Glad the job's going well.
