Mass Observation Day 2024
« on: Thursday 18 April 24 04:54 BST (UK) »
Where does the time go? It is almost time for Mass Observation Day, 12 May - Sunday.
So, prepare to record your day and other comments for the archive.

I'm afraid my day would be incredibly boring.  ;D  I live a very humdrum life doing nothing of any great moment.

It mainly consists of having meals, doing whatever housework needs to be done and doing my jigsaw puzzles.

Are these Mass Observation people really interested in that?

Apparently so.
Sunday is generally a quiet day for me too but I generally add comments about how things have changed in the past year; recent events that I feel should be noted and so on.

Each person has their own story to tell be it an eventful day or not.
It is also Mothers' Day here.

Sunday is karaoke at the Yacht Club!
I haven't been to church in over 50 years ;)
