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.

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.

As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
