The first proper chapter of Sky & Microscope is here. I actually posted it yesterday but getting the formatting right was such a pain that by the time I'd sorted it out I'd had enough. I hope I can sort the problem out because I don't fancy going through that every time I post ( Read more... )

I spoke to Dad yesterday and he seems fine. As expected the worst part for him was waiting to be picked up to go home and hanging around waiting for his prescription to be filled.
