As I read a little from the start of Shogun in the staffroom, I reflected.

Here’s a book set in Japan, translated into French, from, as the French say, de l’Americain with an Englishman as the main character, on a Dutch ship, with a German friend, seeking to outdo the Spanish and Portuguese in the Far East. Well, it’s a language fest to say the least.

Apart from that, things a changing. My blackbird guest Eks appears to have flown the coop. It’s been 24 hours since I saw it. And the Marsh centre has reopened after a month’s holiday.
