Well, the Olympic ceremony tonight is compulsive viewing for me. Please God that there are no more cock ups, aka Korean flag etc. I daresay I'll be glad, like the rest of us Brits, when it's all over. So many people have put so much effort into it that they deserve it to be a roaring success.
On Chapter 14 now of the first book of the trilogy, "The Saturday Pledge". Researching a 1974 scene and surprised that Dr Beeching's axe fell on Accrington train station. Had to rewrite a large part of the chapter! I shall never vote Tory again!.
Looking at some works of art on line with my grandson, we came acrossThe Venus de Milo. I told him that's what happens if you continuously bite your nails.
So it's summer in the UK. I missed it last year, I was brushing my teeth.
I was reading a book on great inventions last night, got to the chapter on Super Glue.......couldn't put it down.
