Little bit of rain last night, not too cold, this morning not too cold. Quite quiet too. As can be seen from all yesterday's notes, it was a very tsunami heavy day yesterday. Blogging about tech stuff was next to impossible, but did manage a few links.

The new thing in the evening seems to be slight sleep depravation campaign until around 11pm/12pm, led by a woman wearing the same tshirt as many of the woman that clean (and perhaps manage) the public toilets. Then in the cafes / shops the next day people wearing red tshirts sitting in front of me, with head on table ostensibly trying to sleep. That's what Gestapo kid did after interogating me and accusing me of lying. Two days in a row now. I mention this because there was that strange incident at the shop / cafe toilet the other day. These sort of incidents have a tendency to be linked in some way.

I wonder what today has in store for me. Hopefully this quiet isn’t the calm before a storm. Probably should think about preparing the newsletter early this week as starvation seems likely by the end of the day. #

Gestapo kid showed up at the cafe / shop again today. There weren't any interogations this time but he was with an entire gang of youths brandishing badmington rackets. They blocked access to the power outlets near where I was sitting, and ice lolly wrapers appeared directly on front of me (very unusual). But before leaving they got really very roudy, tables moved around, chairs thrown about, they made a heck of a lot of noise for about 20 minutes.

Felt somewhat planned, I think they expected me to calm them down, but I just sat quietly listening to music. Also felt somewhat like something bordering on intimidation.

I hope there isn't another unprovoked attack on the horizon, I'm still shaken from the previous attack and the afternath of that. #

I'm in another shop / cafe, the staff passed through quietly and removed my charging portable battery when I wasn't looking and hid it behind the counter downstairs. This isn't a normal occurence, first time it has happened to me in 5 years of being here and going to huge amount of shop / cafes.

What an unbelievable coincidence that this would happen the same day that Gestapo kid and his mob of youths blocked the power outlet in the previous shop / cafe. #
