Synchronicity in action

Sorry I haven’t posted for a while but it ‘s been a combination of  being really really busy (and then someone says “But, that’s a good thing” and you want to smack them. ) and not having much to talk about.

However I must share this strange phenomenon. You know how , once you hear about something , it keeps cropping up? You know, you get Housemaid’s Knee and all of a sudden everyone’s got it, including a member of the Royal family? Carl Jung defined it as “temporally coincident occurrences of acausal events”  or “Synchronicity” Well, in the last 3 days I’ve had 4 enquiries about, Native Americans, the Old West, indigenous American races etc. Normally I never have any! One day last year, 3 people came in one after another and asked for books in French!  Jung says there probably was a cause for all these seemingly random  people all enquiring after the same thing but I tend to blame it on the Moon. I’m sure other shopkeepers notice the same thing. If advertisers could control it , we’d all be rolling in dosh, but for now I’ll go with my Moon theory.

A biento , till I think of summat else.
