There goes Santa Claus

Yep, that's Chrimbo day gone, done and dusted!

I had hoped to offer you another chapter of Ontario this evening, -'ve got as far as first draft on the site but despite many attempts it won't preview so I can't post it. (this is from my phone). After best part of 2 hours of trying i've now given up, life is too short to waste it waiting for the site to work.

Good King Wenceslas looked out...

on the feast of Stephen. there were all sorts of exotic goodies, Stephen really had pulled out all the stops, blackbird pie, crab apples but he must've of misread the recipe for pigs in blankets - the swineherd was fighting a losing battle trying to keep his charges wrapped!

Trixie on Patreon

After months of reaerch and i have to admit, prevarication, today i've made a good start on the new Trixibell Heartswoon 'adventure'! The working title is a bit of a mouthful, A Leipzig Ring des Nibelungen which may be changed by the time i publish! It's set, as you might guess, against a background of a Gothic adventure to Leipzig. I will publish each part to Patreon as its completed so if you've been kind enough to support me through that portal, head over there now to read part one!

Remembrance Sunday

As usual in the UK, the authorities, to avoid upsetting business, once more have us 'celebrating' a National day not on the day itself but on the following weekend, today then, the National mourning for those lost and injured in military conflict kicked off at 11.00am this morning. I always try to observe the 2 minute silence, its not always possible but this year a pause in the day's DIY efforts was enoiugh to take part and to see those in power doing their symbolic wreath laying at the Cenotaph in central London.

Well it's late evening here as I travel through the south Midlands back towards Bevs gaff for the second time in under a week!. This time however it's with the knwledge that the 'emergency' responsible for all the moving and travelling has finally been put to bed, the storage unit cleared and rubbish removed.

Life can, as far as it goes, return to normal for Madeline Anafrid which means that on Sunday I will be posting as normal and normal patterns will resume until late December.

Well that's it for now, time to catch 40 winks before I get back to Brunelville!

There won't be a proper post today or perhaps even Sunday for which I apologise. For why? Well you will recall the news about the lock up where most of my worldly goods are stored? Just to recap, we have been given a week to quit so it's a case of finding an alternative and moving everything by next Monday or lose it.

Before I go further, thank you to everyone who has sent me support, whether words or more tangible, it really is appreciated.
