Just a quickie that i thought i'd share.

I like to write from experience, there isn't much that my characters have done / experienced that i myself haven't or at least would potentially do, whether that's visiting places or doing stuff. For example, my hair has been dyed in a plethora of colours from almost white to green to pink to blue and of course, red. I've subjected myself to a miriad of piercings, i've tried tattoos, worn all sorts of clothing from Cosplay to Kostum, Goth to girl next door. But there has been one thing that often crops up in the TG genre that i've not done, whilst i do sometimes paint my nails i've never been to a nail bar - that is until today!

Don't ask me why but as i travelled back from Germany i resolved to do just that and so this morning i set off to do the deed. A couple of hours later i emerged with a full set of modest extensions firmly affixed to my fingers in a sparkly cherry red. I thought it best not to go too daft lengthwise, i still need to do stuff after all. I'm pretty chuffed with them - i'd better be as i'm stuck with them until at least the New Year but having been through the process i will now be able to write 'nail' scenes somewhat better! What do you reckon?

Then Aunty Bev picked me up and we had a couple of hours at Bath Christmas Market. I did the food and drink stuff that qualifies it as a proper visit even if the mulled wine was neither particularly warm or great on taste - guess i've been spoilt by my trip to Germany!

Thats it, i'll be back on Sunday
