Just a quick update.

We borrowed this for an afternoon and 320 people came to see it - they actually QUEUED!!! Won't go into the hoops we had to jump through to get it but it was nice to see the thing in real life.

It's 2000 years old - give or take a few - and was found by two lads with a metal detector - lucky buggers.

Now, I'm musing over the following things:

Can puppies levitate? because that would explain the incident with the cream. Unless, of course, he and the cats are in cahoots, which is too frightening to contemplate.

Also too frightening to contemplate is leaving our 18 year old son to look after the house while we are away. A party is inevitable I suppose - and why not? - but we are busy damage-limiting. Last party there was a bit of a fracas where punches were thrown, only one - the last - our son's, but due to not done it before, he broke his hand. If it happens again we hope he remembers to use his left.

Off tomorrow at an unearthly hour to La Rochelle so the better half can eat sea food and drink - whatever we find. I plan to write, of course, and paint a little.

I will miss you enormously while I am away *hugs*

So you're a footie fan now? Wow! At least the scenery is nice even if all the rules are baffling and i suppose it isn't actually compulsory to care who wins as long as they look as though they are having a good time doing it.

I plan to while away the years til book 7 is finally released into the wild by amusing myself on the net in various wholly legal yet fun ways some of which may involve writing slash.

The only things I have been writing lately are RP spin offs like this one (http://archive.skyehawke.com/story.php?no=9713) and just one HP fic where I collaborated with someone else. It's Harry/Draco, a pairing I thought I'd never do, and I was dared (http://archive.skyehawke.com/story.php?no=5300).

I just can't see myself ever writing RPS. It doesn't seem fair. Fictional charries are fair game though.

I came up with the plot, my friend wrote Harry and I found Draco easier to write than I thought I would. I'm glad you like what you've seen.
