    In North Devon around the Ilfracombe/Barnstaple area although not actually in Ilfracombe town as its a pig to get out of.

    Everything atm is either being let and up for sale at the same time which is no good for us, on winter let only (again no good) or is too expensive/dodgy/already let the day it was advertised. We will find somewhere its just a case of keeping our eyes peeled

    Sorry to hear that Cyclura.

    Writing group went really well, the other two both liked my pieces and there were no problems (apart from my usual sloppy not proof reading them mistakes), so I'm improving! But I've just realised that I've agreed to pick up my car on Wednesday at the same time as the writing course, so I'm going to have to try and change that at the last minute cos the right guy isn't in tomorrow.

    Gonna catch up on the forums, then watch some trashy soaps and then spend the rest of the evening writing.

    I think so too Sammy, but since the bedroom doesn't get heat to it it'll have to wait till Spring or I'll freeze writing in there!

    My eyes are going square, I saw some cushions a few weeks ago that were perfect for my bedroom, but I'm buggered if I can remember where they were. So I'm looking online at every shop that might have them. I want to try and get purple and a turquoisy blue to 'match', cos most of my bedding's purple but I've got a gorgeous bedspread in different blues, and the cushions had flowers in the two colours.
