Elsewhere...

Well, I'm out at my mum's place in Herefordshire. She isn't. This is all according to the plan... She's been up in Manchester since yesterday, and will be back here later today with blufive and calatrice in tow, prior to those two being fetched off down to Cornwall this evening.

I should let people know that I will be poking the net occasionally, but I'm off in the land of slooooow-spod. Today I have wandered in to the town itself to use our local net-ice-cream-parlour (yes - no net cafe here - it's an ice-cream parlour) so I can get a few things done quickly and have myself a hot chocolate at the same time. I'll be heading back to the house again shortly, though. Almost out of time here...

Have a good one, folks!
