After much searching, I finally found something to do in London that isn't at all fun. rahael and I were eating breakfast this morning -- cereal with blueberries and bananas -- when I felt something in my mouth that might have been an unripened blueberry, were blueberries just a tad more metallic. I fished around and pulled out a small silver-pewter

So sorry about the filling! I *hate* having dental work done -- it must be much more complicated on vacation abroad.

But your canoeing trip sounds wonderful! Although I cannot fathom why you would want to dance on Jane Austen's grave.

P.S. -- Sekrit message from beastlydead: he really, really wants to get in touch with you. Something about PKD... I wasn't entirely clear on what. But I think he's writing about him and wants your input! So he inveigled me into promising to prod you to email him...

And in case you don't happen to recall beastlydead's email, it's his full first name plus last name (all one word) at earthlink, which, as you are no doubt aware, is a dot-net rather than a dot-com.

Trip sounds idyllic, except for the dentist bit. Especially considering how famous the English are for their bad teeth. Although I fancy the latter can be traced to a paucity of orthodontists, rather than an inferior supply of dentists.

Love to you and Rah, and greetings from Jen and Mark, whom I saw at Reunion.

LOL!

Ouch. I can recommend a dentist in the Walthamstow/Chingford area, if you're interested. Don't know how the payment would work.

That acqueduct thing sounds fascinating.

Thank you for the offer. I may yet take you up on that -- I went with the first place that I could find through Google. I don't know how I will pay for it, but fillings run from forty pounds up, so I guess if it has to be it can be cash. The dentist does a lot of cosmetic work, as well as emergency work on travellers, so I don't suppose I'll shock them by offering a credit card instead of an NHS card.

If worse comes to worse use an ATM card to get cash. Almost forgot to make the reservation for Chicago. I'll make it now before I take off. I miss you. Not a link Have to call have written down phone number and will call soon.

OK, so quite without my saying anything about it, you write an entry about an aqueduct which is ten minutes walk from my home address.

I made quite a few walks this weekend; another ten minutes wouldn't have killed me. I must admit though that as I looked at the Royal Crescent, I asked Rah, "So, in which of these does TCH live?"

It wasn't a 'Sliding Doors' type scenario

[atpotch]

Partly because you're a much more interesting character than the Gwyneth Paltrow one, but mostly because I'm not at home at the moment, I'm in my term-time university digs in Coventry.

-I live on the end: the middle ones are unconscionably dingy, and never let one forget that one is living in a terrace.

You got to go to Stonehenge! The south of England was the only part I didn't get to see on my tour lo those many years ago, which is ironic, since the part of my heritage that is English (admittedly skimpy) is from Devonshire.
