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.

    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
    • We have had 4 greyhounds - the last one, a bitch, was not speyed so we  had to pay for that at our local vet.  Only one dog was nervous around children and only one was cat friendly.
