Let's see how I will be able to tackle this modern technology. I'm off to visit my friend Brenda in the States on Tuesday. Great! Thanks Marni for getting me started, sitting at home hoping this will work. Will be nice to keep in touch with friends and family, wonder if they will be impressed, I know I will. O.K - enough of this, plenty to do yet, disorganised as usual. Next location??????!!!!!!!... read more

Okay, I tink I'm gunna use this site for my log of the forthcoming journey cos the MYspace one is very limited and I keep losin my entries, and all the others seem to require a degree in computer science to understand. So here I am and here I'm gunna stay. Unless of course this is a lot more complicated than it appears! Its raining, cos, well, its England.

I completed a lot of work on my book chapter - collating all the material into one document under sub-headings, so that I have the basic structure of my chapter in place, although I wouldn’t say that any of it was yet WRITTEN as such! Bank Holiday Monday ended up on a very long cycle ride in pursuit of the Guardian - determined to keep up with the Media pages at the moment… left it a bit late in the day to start looking, but ran it down in Harleston’s garage, ... read more
