  "textContent": "  * It’s been a less hectic week after our Disneyland holiday. The boys had an INSET day on Friday, so L drove them to her parents’ for the weekend, while I stayed behind to work (and enjoy the peace and quiet).\n  * With some time to myself, I’ve been researching our big trip to Japan next year. Claude is helping, advising that we avoid Golden Week, and suggesting a tailored itinerary before it gets too warm or busy. Lots more work to do, but the planning has begun.\n  * I streamed a couple of films while L’s been away that she wouldn’t have liked: One Battle After Another - Sean Penn is superb - and Send Help - ditto Rachel McAdams. We’re also watching plenty of TV series, all of which release their new episodes each week. At least with linear TV you knew when to watch; with streaming, release patterns are frustratingly unclear.\n  * I tried the new coffee shop in the village for the first time. A local family bought what was an old sweet shop and have brought it back to life. Decent flat white, decent pain aux raisins. Even though I have my own nice coffee at home, I now have a good option when on the way back from a lunchtime walk.\n  * As is traditional, the boys organised a family sweepstake for the upcoming World Cup. I was stitched up. They drew eight countries for me, of which no-hopers, the US, was my highest ranked team.\n  * I’m getting closer to launching my new personal website. I’m 90% done, but I’m stuck on a design that I’m happy with. While I’ve successfully used Claude with the back-end, I’ve not liked its front-end designs. I suppose that’s fine: a personal website should be personal after all.\n\n",
