Walk

The rain rattled hard against his skin and he peered out at the dark world from within.

Wind scudded leaves around in curves their wet surfaces catching the street lights from time to time with a distant flash as he pushed through the world. A man stepped out of a shop to his right hood up eyes down and bag clasped tight. Secure within he ( Read more... )

So been a little busy the last couple of days and it has been rather nice. Friday it turned out that the chaps working on the road we had paid to dig and refill a trench for us with their 50 ton digger couldn't be arsed to do the second bit of back filling so I spent an hour shovelling a few tons of dirt and stone back into the hole (given I'd been ( Read more... )

Air chill and laden with scent washed past him as he padded quietly along, this area was new to him as so much of his journey had been but he knew he would find her eventually. Off to one side of his path the susurrus of hushed voices drew his mercurial attention and yet again he meandered ( Read more... )

So today has been interesting. Watched a program on mystic/holy sites in Britain and one of them was about fifteen miles away.

To that end I will assume that I can not and plan accordingly, switching track once more will not be so very hard. So I ( Read more... )

So lately things are coming together, the building that should help pay for my kids uni education (or what ever) and help with thier morgage is looking more like a structure and less like a post apocalypic film set. Both children are doing well and Leo has been diagnosed as dyslexic and is getting extra lessons so in theory at least he should also ( Read more... )

Notes on the Gathering of Nations :       This was an interesting experiance, the children really came alive during the few days of the Gathering although thier lessons did not progress as well as hoped due to the curios amount of combat they had to participate in, very strange as I do not remember such things as a child myself.   In other respects ( Read more... )

It took the pair of them sometime to reach the circle as nether was as spry as they once had been. Once there they where greeted by the sight of an apparently young fey woman in a green dress chatting quietly to a large man in late middle age holding hands with a colossal teddy bear ( Read more... )
