I’ve only just noticed that – 100 days left in this project and therefore the year. The first 100 posts flew by as well.
Today has mostly been spent in front of the laptop working, preparing things for the week ahead. I also realised that I had one more document to make from the data that I thought I’d completed yesterday – which allowed me to spot a small error in one of the ones from yesterday as well, so that was a positive. I still have a list of jobs to get done, five things in total plus another non-work job to sort (the non-work one is arranging David Bowie’s Heroes for brass band. It’s 80% done but I need to fix a few things on it). A fair bit of the school stuff can get done tomorrow night as I have a governor’s meeting at school where it is easier to stay on school until it begins at 6:30 rather than go home and have to go back again later.
The other big event today was the Singapore Grand Prix – another race won by Sebastian Vettel in frightening form. A safety car half way through the race eradicated his lead to nothing and he still won by over 30 seconds. There is no chance that he will lose this title. I just wish that the races were a bit more exciting. Most of the coverage settled upon the battle for either 8th or 11th since nothing else was happening on track. That’s a sad state of affairs. The sport has seen dominance before – and there’s nothing wrong with that – it just makes it harder to love it!
Since it’s a night race, the victory is celebrated with a mass of fireworks, like this one:
