So the reason I haven't posted much recently, other than the all-too-easy "R" word, is for TEXT the fact that I've been storming ahead with the novel, and for PHOTOGRAPHS the fact that I've lost my little plastic gimmick that enables me to transfer pictures from my camera to the laptop. Idiot, huh? Anyway - after a riotous turn at a Devonshire beach, I hope to eventually bring a few amazing landscape shots, a sand-sculpture, and a few weirdly over-posed IDs. And perhaps the seagull nest from outside my window, of which the overprotective mother insisted waking me at 6.20 am every morning.

Holidays are FUN...
