Spent the morning adding more photos to my site. Managed to get through all that I had available, so now I'm officially all-photoed-out!!!! You can check them all out by going to my web site and clicking on the PHOTOS link.

A couple of statues for my garden arrived in the afternoon, so I was busy overseeing the installation of them. (Well, busy fetching cups of tea for those doing the hard work, but "foreman" is a far nicer position than "teaboy"!!!) They're big, gorgeous pieces -- very imposing!!! Although I decided to put one of them down at the end of my garden, and it's rather diminished when viewed from the house. It'll be great when you're up close to it, but people looking at it from my kitchen will be going with mild curiosity, "What's that?" rather than exclaiming "What the hell is THAT?!?!?!" Oh well, too late to change my mind now -- it weighs 560kg, so I can't just move it around willy-nilly!!!!!!!

Time got away from me later. I'd planned to go to with my friend Kenny, but the statues were late arriving and took longer to install than normal, so I had to cancel. I then thought I'd watch a film, visit my parents and grandparents, and have a nice long bath. Nope!!! Wasn't time for that either! I managed to squeeze in a quick visit, but the film and bath had to be forgotten. Instead I packed my bag (I've got two tours almost back-to-back, so I have to make sure I don't forget anything), and made sure I had all the pens, business cards, and everything else I need for life on the road. I THINK I've remembered everything ...

Came across a fun web site the other day. It allows you to virtually "marry" the fictional character of your choice! So if any of you have ever faniced being Mrs Larten Crepsley, Mrs Darren Shan, or Mr Arra Sails, click on the following link and may your nights be long and happy and blessed with freakish joy!!!! MARRY HERE!!!
