That Interview

-

The major news outlets have reacted similarly to Harry’s BBC interview, (in response to the Court of Appeal ruling). Certainly, not the best move to discuss family relations on a TV interview. And the most likely reason why no one in the family will speak to Harry is probably because no one wants their conversation to appear on a TV show or book. Still, I feel the tabloids and the media treat Harry and his family unfairly (with prejudice). I am reading Harry's 2023 book, Spare, and won't form any solid opinions before I finish it. However, what I will say is, Harry is a husband and father, and as far as appearances go, he is trying to do right by his family. To me, that will always be admirable regardless of anything else.

Serenity

-
I never used to notice the crowds or the noise, but these days, I seem to notice them all the time. Has the city changed, or have I? There have always been annual fringe festivals, marches, and various parades. Yet, I either did not notice, or did not care. These days, it can feel overwhelming. I even time my supermarket visits for quieter times. I first noticed this change in myself when my daughter went off to university. And my appreciation for serenity continued even after she moved back in. Interestingly, this also coincided with a more selective stance on TV/entertainment consumption, and earlier nights. However, to be perfectly honest, I am not a million miles away from my former self, just a more refined version.

Bananas

-
I bought a bunch of bananas last week, intending to have one everyday. For me, it is the easiest and simplest fruit to consume. No prep or utensils required. Just peel the skin, and bite into it. When finished, just put the skin in the rubbish bin. Great on the go or in the office. The same cannot be said for apples. First, you either need to chop them with a knife, which means prep, utensils etc. Or eat them whole, which means having to wash fingers afterwards. Besides, chopped apples need to be consumed straight away or they go brown. Definitely not ideal on the go or in the office. Back to the bananas in my kitchen. Yes, they are convenient, but they also need to be consumed within a few days of purchase, or the skin turns dark very quickly (it baffles me how we never see brown-skin bananas in the supermarket). Tip: do not buy too many bananas in one go.
