DM you have soooo many characters in your play, although your habit of playing a nun, sweet as she is, I, like all red blooded males, prefer the practical lady with the duster.

She is far more use than a nun, on bended knee umpteen times a day, who believes 'oral' is singing along with the choir.

Michael, I'm a dedicated buffer of my own handrail, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

The finish is of the best quality, and of course the elbow grease and polishing are of a vigour and

application that can only be properly applied first hand.


It's the only way.

....................(sigh)


The publisher I was signed with has gone into liquidation. So many of the people who published through them will never receive any of the royalties, it is so very dreadful indeed to see all of their hopes and dreams disappear into smoke.


I broke my contract with them in February, when I got a super smart agent who read my contract and informed me that this publisher and contract was absolutely shite. I am so relieved to be away from them, but so sorry for so many of their lovely authors... I may even open a bottle or two. I think I may need to lie down.


Or, perhaps I will go shopping instead!


Afterall, in the words of Scarlet O'Hara; "tomorrow is another day!"


I think that I will incorporate the entire fiasco of the liquidated publisher in my revised manuscript! You know that I find inspiration simply everywhere. I shall right now incorporate a portly red faced red head with no conscience and an emormous beer gut into my plot! Hurrah.

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
