  • grateful and valli - I understand what you are saying. He was mortified already last night just I suppose I want him to feel it more - is that bad? I've had his dad on since I last text- he is mortified himself as James has told him and his mum what went on, now in my mind a good lad wouldn't of done that and they have gone mental with him. This was completely a one off in my opinion - I've known him since he was a babe in arms.

    Oh and on a flying note I've de-cluttered another beer!!!!

    and thanks to you too Toots, kind of you to say so...shame about not getting up there though, would have loved to have met up. I'll wait for better weather.;)

    I took a picture of the most disturbing looking cherubs I've ever seen on a building in the town....wierd....**shudder**

    Do you know which ones I mean?

    I've made buttermilk mash for tea and a chocolate cake in the remoska.

    Gratefulforhelp - I really sympathise with the no heat - I suffered that for 2 days in Christmas week. It was really grim. And I WANT to get published, just need to find a publisher! Oooh just read, you're all oiled up again - what a relief that must be and well done Watsons..

    Greenbee - did you bleed the rads when the pump was on? And if there are any pedos left, could I have one? My last one broke..

    Poppytime - argg, a list of questions! Basically, I suppose, how did he find a publisher will do for a start! Then how long did it take and was he pleased with his end result or did he feel it ended up out of his control?

    G&B - why did "Dildo" suddenly pop into my head?

    carlsb - hugs love - and yes - you do get him to pay for it and you do talk to him about it...

    I have alternated between flying and writing today - haven't done enough flying to warrant a star but I'm hopeful tomorrow will see me knock a couple on their head.

    Greenbee - I know you're busy but could I possibly email you two pages? I have completed one bloke today into just about final draft and would appreciate your input on style and editorial stuff before I start striding ahead... (and yes, I know two pages doesn't sound a lot, but since there are over 80 of them, and there'll be an introductory chapter and a couple of appendices, I'm not wanting to go into more than one volume!)

    Nope did the rads while cold (as I normally do them when hot). I'm not sure that it isn't grit in the pump... Pedometers are all gone I'm afraid... but they're reduced pretty much everywhere!

    Go ahead... anything to avoid doing any work :D but be warned, I've just submitted a scathing review for one of my colleagues :p (mind you, I'm sure yours won't be anything like as bad... besides which, I won't be able to question your accuracy as to the content...)

    Thankyou - you'll have email shortly. There will be a selective bibliography at the end of the book too, but I've decided not to stick references throughout the text - in my view it makes them less readable. However, all the references are noted down and can be produced should I be challenged at any point.

    Have just stuck some sausages in the oven for dinner and am decluttering a glass of wine...
