![]() Swimming is the best sport I know for reflecting seriously on history. I never work in the afternoon, preferring to go swimming in a local health club, for more mulling as I slowly and happily traverse the pool for 20 minutes. ![]() I can then covertly mull over the morning’s work. Ideally I then go out to a local Italian restaurant, preferably with someone who talks brilliantly about themselves, not totally impossible to achieve in London W11. In consequence I’m a touch typist – actually the most useful skill I ever acquired so much for uppishness.Īt this point in my day, I work with aforesaid total calm from about 9.30 until lunchtime. ![]() I’ve always written on some form of typewriter, now a computer, since I was forced to learn typing on Saturdays at my convent school as a punishment for being uppish. I’ve also invested in a special computer for work, so that while I’m upstairs I do not receive those delightful distracting emails for which my baser self is secretly longing. ![]() Now the day will progress with total calm, won’t it, since the telephone bell is turned off, while the mobile is banished during the morning. ![]()
