Last night, after several days of writing bits, gritted teeth and made myself write the heist, which finishes the story off. Which also included writing the tango scene - not sure how much of that went a bit mechanical in description, but it's bloody DONE ( Read more... )

Little flakes of snow at lunchtime. The equivalent of spitting if it was rain. Still, I do love the #uksnow tag on twitter, where people are *purposely* providing survey data for the Met Office - #uksnow, time, postcode. Does anyone know why this started, and is it herd mentality with a combo of 'dammit, data is interesting' that's rather ( Read more... )

Hoping like hell I can get back tonight since I want to mess around in the snow. 'Specially considering tomorrow is birthday. (snow is normally only a february or Easter thing in ( Read more... )

Achieved hat that actually covers my ears and looks halfway decent. Which makes me ponder if this weather (cold winters with snow) continues, how long the UK will take to adjust and take it in stride so everyone just goes 'oh. snow.' without it disrupting transport or work. Problem being that mass (electric) transport/motorways in the UK didn't ( Read more... )
