there was hardly any blood.

'wall' up on nearby stretch of grass. looks superb, is almost straight. instantly surrounded by ferral teens drinking, fighting, smoking weed, etc; i am a bonus to my local community.

weather cold, rain QED resumed.

enjoying having mac back. realised i trust mac users more than PC users. am a technological fascist. i am non PC.

'this week' graced by excellent mr pienaar last night. again unable to watch QT due to being too tired to shout at tv- (viewer yelling compulsory).

when 'thick of it' back?? malc and jamie so uplifting. ' och, there was hardly any ****ing blood'.

    I love the train pic. Looks very "Thirties" to me. What is the book? BTW, I have stuck a couple or three of my sketches up; a bit tortured and laboured compared to yours.

    Hello Violet, thanks for dropping by and, er...I can't think of anything to say right now. Not to worry, I'm sure I'll be back.

    Hey Violet - thanks for the comment and compliment on my blog - I was looking for an email address for you but had to settle for posting a comment. Hope to see/hear from you more in the future!

    I'm a Mac fan too, from SE days. And yes, I am a fencer. Off to Poland tomorrow with the England Epee cadets (I'm primarily a foilist, though have recently discovered an aptitude for the others).

    Violet - thanks for the comment on my blog, to which I have responded.

    Yours is a delight that I hadn't seen before, but which I will follow from today.

    It put me slightly in mind of 'Dear Fonzie' by the feisty Jennifer Michael Hecht. You might wish to try it out.

    Hope to correspond soon!
