(But at only &#8212; what, 30%-ish totality? &#8212; this is forgivable. I think I noticed things getting a <em>little<\/em> dim this morning, but there was some cloud cover passing through at the time, and people no doubt attributed the change of lighting to that.)<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile I am holed up in a comfortable bar\/restaurant called the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jarntorgspumpen.se\/\">J\u00e4rntorgs Pumpen<\/a>, finishing work on the film outline and watching other, more normal people sitting out in the sun in front of the restaurant and enjoying themselves. Having had a nice cool tuna salad, I then started a cyberskulk (i.e., a hunt for\u00a0powerpoints \/ outlets)\u00a0and was delighted to find outlets to charge up\u00a0both computer and cellphone just a table away. (Future visitors, NB: it\u2019s the table for four inside the window on the left as you face the restaurant from the square: the outlets\u00a0are between the table and the front door.)<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the view from where I\u2019m working:<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dianeduane.com\/images\/Jaerntorgs_Pumpen_Window.jpg\" alt=\"View out the front window of the Jaerntorgs Pumpen restaurant\" border=\"0\" \/><\/center>\u00a0&#8230;And now back to work.<\/p>\n<p>(Dublin readers: imagine my surprise to find a bar\/restaurant called \u201cThe Temple Bar\u201d just around the corner.
