Beedle the Bard

Amazon are carrying a review of Rowling’s Tales of Beedle the Bard, hand-written and illustrated by her. There are seven copies in the world, and it’s absolutely beautiful.  It’s been a long time since I’ve wanted anything quite so badly, but £2m is one thing I don’t have.

I parted company with money

A ludicrous amount of it, in fact. But it means I have first call on the flat, assuming my credit check is clean (which it will be, I’m sure).

Well, a studio really, but it has a partition to form a bedroom. It was awesome, therefore I am going to the estate agents tomorrow morning, before it disappears to someone else (like last time).

We camped again this week, for probably the last time until next year. It’s just too chilly at night now, and the evenings don’t last long enough to be worth it. Still, we had only a little rain and two very beautiful days, and it was too good an opportunity to miss. Sometimes I surprise…

Ten Tears

I cried ten tears for you tonight. One for the smile you helped me to wear Two for the letters we learned how to share Three for the images you left in my heart Four for the moments that we had to part Five for the times when I knew you were there Six for…

Normality

Normality is a perfection we strive to create based on events of the past which have no meaning in the future.

Still the same old me

It’s been a long time in the making, but I’ve finally made the transition from a collection of disparate elements into one, cohesive home. Or something.
