November begins

and the heat is intense. We've just had 3 days of a winter heat wave, temperatures around 34 Celsius and very low humidity. I think this is preferable to the UK winter. Times are busy here; I started my studies at Givat Haviva (http://www.givathaviva.org.il/english/) last week. It's one full day a week of studying literary and spoken Arabic. The first day was quite tough as I am not used to being a student and the pace was dizzying.

Clare is getting a bit claustrophobic in our tiny flat, so we started looking around for a bigger place to rent, no joy so far as the typical rental contract starts in July (usually for one year).

I am off to New York on Thursday to look after Max who is starting his 2nd course of Chemo today.
