Oooh oooh! I do want!

Then again, I don’t have a chess set with me, so it’s a little hard to figure out where to place the pieces unless there is something online what we can play with.

That said, I’m a crap chess player. I can’t remember the last time I won. Then again, I can’t remember the last time I played either.

LOL, sorry hon. And I am just as GRRRRRR at myself you know. This was *meant* to be a short character sketch for myself to get Luk firmly fixed in my mind. He’s still kinda fuzzy - I need a much better mental image of him if I am going to be able to write him consistently and well.

The problem, as always, is that a minor character who was just meant to be there as scenery suddenly sprouted a voice and took over. I refuse to fall in love with Pirael Jiacomo. I refuse!

(And I’d tell you what happens, if I could be sure that’s what would end up happening. You’ve seen first hand how I can kill off a major character in the blink of an eye and completely change the plot!)

Dammit woman, MORE!!!!! I love you millions, and I know ’tis a labour of love… and I wouldn’t yell at GRRM (and he is way, way worse), but dammit, I wanna know what happens /pouts/

(I should say that CCM apologizes profusely for the awful, awful UKIP pun in his last comment).

Toby, I’ll leave you to have the debate on Churchill with Moose and CCM, both who are much more qualified to talk about it than me! But welcome to Bright Meadow and the comments.

I know what you mean - I used to work for an MEP and this is the first time I’ve voted in a European election and not felt any great connection. Being an “ordinary voter” is weird. And depressing when you look at the result.

By the way, on UKIP - I completely agree that it’s disingenuous to cite Churchill as a eurosceptic since he went on the record saying that Europe should be a federation of states. Problem is, he also said that the UK should stay out of it…

I saw the Meadow Terrace in your tweeting, but I took that to be part of it not the whole, if you get what I’m saying.

Well I’m here and not quite sure what to do with all the space I suddenly have! Unpacking is a LOT more fun than packing though

Yeah, that sidebar widget is a little buggy. I frequently just track that I’ve finished a book (but not that I started it), which completely wigs the system out.

And oooh, Whisky Meadows is good. I was leaning towards Meadow Terrace, but that’s a bit of a come-down after a palace. Anyone else got any ideas?

I’ve just noticed that according to your tally of reading material to the right here you managed to read 3 books before you were even born. I knew you were a quick reader, but wow!

On a more serious note though, what is the new Meadow going to be called? Any ideas? I vote for Whisky Meadows.

I just dump all hangers (after arranging it nicely) into a green bag or a large shopping bag. That always solves the problem. The hardest thing really for me to move are all my electronic equipment. The wires and power cords are a nightmare to disassemble.

Either way, see you on the other side Cas. We’ll be waiting.

Maybe it’s You Kip,but I’d rather stay awake.
