Sunday

Good morning peeps,

I am getting the usual suspects checking the blog and wondering why I didn't update yesterday.
Well I wasn't very well and I was busy writing. The manuscript is nearly 59,000 words. It only needs to make 65,000 in order to be a short book. Anyone who wants to do manuscript appraisal for me, get in touch, the more the merrier.

I have had a mild chest infection recently and didn't think anything of it, until I got a sore throat, which I ignored until it became raging and my temperature went up and I have generally felt blah, so I just wrote quietly most of the day yesterday and went for a drive in the afternoon, I didn't feel like going to one of the carnivals. I will wait and go to our local carnival next week, and will do some photography for that.

Not much to say. I am cooking a late breakfast/ brunch and watching the Hollyoaks omnibus.
Yesterday's rain showers meant that I didn't even do the few hours of work I had planned so that goes onto next week's work. I am working the bank holiday as an almost normal day, and will play scrabble with my mate as well.
I got us a scrabble set from the car boot sale and although I picked it up first, someone else came along at the same time and wanted to offer the seller twice the price for it, but I told him I wanted it for my mate who's increased disability meant he couldn't get out so much. Which is true, so they let me have it.

There is rain due tomorrow afternoon and into Tuesday, so at least the gardens may be easier to dig after that, the ground has been horribly dry.
