Good Friday is a good Friday for atheists who remembered to get extra wine supplies in.

I'm back on Harrison duty today - I did a 24 hour shift that ended late yesterday. I did, however, find time to stock up on supplies because supermarkets are closed today. The supermarket employees I spoke to yesterday were pleased.

Another slightly older Harrison.

They are looking forward to a good Friday. So, why are the supermarkets closed today and Sunday? It's evidently because Christians believe that some guy got nailed to a cross on this day many years ago. Then Catholics celebrate on Sunday because he comes back to life. Sì, e io sono il papa.

Robert is writing things in Filipino a lot lately. I think it's because he has a Filipino friend. Fair enough, I suppose. I think that Peter survived the big storm up north. I'm meeting Lynn for lunch on Sunday, so I'll fill her in on the details.

Peter: PLEASE don't mention me being up on the roof!

Richard: Okay, if you promise not to wear that silly hat when you come to the Nui. Did that chair blow over again?

Peter: No, I got rid of that chair. It was something rattling on the roof this time.

Richard: I hope you didn't just throw that unwanted chair up onto the roof!

Peter: Well, yes, I did. Thanks for reminding me. That was probably what was rattling. That chair has been a pain!

Richard: Your roof shouldn't be a storage area for unwanted chairs.

Peter: Well, I had to put it somewhere. The trailer was full with other stuff.

Richard: No wonder Lynn won't allow you into the office when she is home and trying to work!

Peter: Just don't tell her. Okay?

Richard: My lips are sealed.

Okay, I've got instrumental practice to do - trumpet, double bass and violin. 

Ciao tutti.
