Right then. The tan (such as it was) is fading, the one hour jet-lag has gone and I haven't looked at a pain au choc since Saturday. That's it till Christmas folks, heads down and charge into autumn. Need to put a few hours in catch up with all the work I didn't do while abroad. Might have cleared the paperwork by half term. I shall suggest les enfants perform a few secretarial tasks before they do whatever it is they get up to and see where that gets me. Wish me luck...
GRRM was fun yesterday I thought and we managed to skirt the 'when's the next book finished?' irritation. Jon Ronson had warned me but I think George can cope. But quite how he holds everything in his head, I have no idea. Seven books worth? I can't remember my registration number. Today we have the delightful Ben Watt, writer, singer, producer, EBTG, other half of Tracey Thorn. He has a new CD and a family memoir too. This man is seriously talented-Ben Watt here at 6.
And how about Left handed oldies? It is International Left Handers Day so let's join in the hours of fun to be had choosing songs for lefies. Off you go...
Workload permitting, see you at 5.
