Lots to Do



Time flies when you least want it to. What I mean by that is if you are busy and active with lots going on you suddenly realise that the thing you meant to do yesterday, last week or increasingly even, last year has slipped by and still remains un-done. In fact sometimes when you pause to think about it you can't quite remember what it was that was the thing. The thing obviously that you meant to do.

I think its probably age. There are good things about being in ones thirties but they often come with the thought "Gosh, I wish I'd been able to do this, felt like this, or viewed this thing in this way a few years ago. Don't get me wrong I'm not moaning about age getting on. At least not yet, but I have managed to write some long sentences here without actually saying very much at all. And I didn't do that a few years ago. Perhaps I wish I had.

Many of the things I refer to are to do with writing things down so that when I come to this blog I can write the witty piece that I thought of whilst walking down the street on the was to the barbers, or the thing I thought when I saw a certain building. It seems that many possibly excellent writing subjects pop into my head when I'm walking about. And then, when I sit down here at my keyboard, I can't quite remember again.

With this in mind I plan to purchase a small electronic MP3 thingie / dictaphone so that I can look even odder as I perambulate about muttering to myself.

It might pay off.

The last week or so has mostly been very good. There have been cocktails at the Savoy, lobsters at Christophers in Covent Garden, walks in the beautiful autumn gold forest by my abode and even an extreme all night of clubbing at The Cross. And these are just the things I can mention. Any one of them could have fuelled a rip roaring piece but its not here.

This weeks looking just as busy but on top of it I'm actually busy at work and have two new cats in the house.

They have been named 'Persia and Martin' Don't ask why.

In other news the ever lovely Slinx has been a bit poorly. It won't last long though I'm sure.
