I'm an abject failure as a blogger! Only four posts in a year! Why on earth are you still reading? I'd have given up long ago...Maybe you have...
Autumn news in brief, then. I've been to Austria with the school choir - cake capital of Europe! - and Venice with my mum - a special treat for her 'significant' birthday. Both were amazing in totally different ways. I've had my teeth repaired - twice. My lovely dentist says I'm not allowed to bite anything ever again. I still have a bit of a black eye and a bad shoulder. My new glasses cost about the same as a trip to Venice. I've been to Birmingham a few times for ballet. I really miss being a Shakespeare Institute scholar. I'm trying to direct a production of 'Into the Woods'. I discovered the joys of Gin Festivals.
See? You haven't missed much. Somehow it seems to be almost Christmas again. The last G&P Christmas story was a staggering four years ago. In frustration and grumpiness, I managed to scrawl over 4000 words of a new Christmas story on Saturday. I'm not promising anything will come of it, mind you. But it's more than I've written in one go for a long time.
I have no time AT ALL between now and December 19th. But... Don't give up on us just yet: who knows? There might be a Christmas miracle!
