While my move to a laptop has been fantastic in regard to speed of access to, amongst other sites, SG, my typing has gone out the window what with the small keys and all. I feel like I've got very big and clumsy fingders when I'm hammering away and having to go back to correct constant typos, instead of the long, thin, elegant fingers I've...

I've got a week off work! Lots of things to do around the house - wallpapering etc - but hopefully plenty of time to catch up with friends online. I'm also determined to write some letters this week. I used to be a brilliant letter-writer, but have just lost the habit. I dearly want to get it back.
Spending a couple of days in London...

Went to see Watchmen on Saturday - what a film. As faithful an adaptation as anyone could hope for, well acted, and with a fantastic soundtrack. Brilliant.
lil_em:
A lot of my SG friends keep talking about this Watchmen thing and I have no idea what they're talking about! Glad you enjoyed it anyway smile

Well, it's been a while ('twas ever thus) but I'm back again - finally out from under the show I was directing and ready to face the world again. It all went very well and, to some extent restored my faith in the act of directing itself.
Anyway, what do we all think of Valentines Day? I used to be a great celebrator of it...

First of all, hello to all my friends in the US and congratulations on the exciting things promised by your new President. Let's hope he lives up to his promise, for your country and the world.

I'm currently directing my local pantomime. Now for those of you living outside Britain, a pantomime is a show that takes place around Christmas and early New Year in...

I've just been checking through my friends list and was quite taken aback by how many of them had departed SG for pastures new. In many respects this is a sad indictment of how seldom I check in with my friends and a spur to make me do so more in future. So, with my now reduced list I'm determined to contact all of my...

Hey, that's great news hon! I guess losing people on SG is inevitable; I've lost people on here who I thought I was pretty close to and yet they didn't even say they were going. It's disappointing huh.

It's great to see you back and being so active again biggrin

Two days, two posts! Is this a record. Back home at lunchtime to check on the gas men who are digging up my drive and doing something to the gas meter. Inevitably, it looks like it's going to be a much more complex task than anticipated, and at present the house smells vaguely of gas which is unpleasant. In theory the gas will be back...

dryad:
Good timing, gas men!

And know you know, when we have a party its worth the trek!
lil_em:
It really is bloody cold hon, try and keep as warm as you can. I'm in my office for the first time since before Christmas and it's painfully cold up here so you're not the only one suffering. Hopefully they'll get that gas sorted ASAP!! xx

Happy New Year, everyone. I've got a new laptop which hopefully will allow for more frequent excursions into the land of SG. My old pc was so damn slow I had to pencil in a half-hour window in my schedule just to switch it on. Anyway, here I am, in snowy Britain and strangely hopful about 2009 - let's hope it brings great things to...

We've gotta keep hoping haven't we!! smile

I've just finished reading Joe Hill's Heart-Shaped Box - a very haunting, dark novel, but with a lovely redemptive ending. Highly recommended.

I've got bruises on my arm from stripping the willow.
(It's a Scottish dance - not a euphemism for masturbation)
I was at a wedding in Scotland on Wednesday and my dance partner was particular vigorous. Fun - if tiring.
