Well, that makes a change

Instead of watching programs my TiVo had recorded, or watching DVDs in the queue, I put on the CD player and let it change CDs each one finished (400 CDs in the player; it can play for ages :-)) and for around 3 hours did very little except read and have a couple of drinks.
[ minor interruptions to put the towels in the drier, then get them out, and to make a couple of sandwiches, and stuff, but mostly just reading ]

I haven't just taken time to read for ages. Reading on the train is too interrupted. Reading in bed only lasts 10 minutes or so before I try to get to sleep.

I should do this more often!
