[Ella] Congrats! And welcome back! I haven't noticed anything untoward yet.

[Penelope] Thank you! And on the horrendous errors front; there's still time :)

[Ella] What pen said!

Ella! How nice to have you back with us :-)

[and Ella] Please come and join my Animal Vegetable Mineral Abstracty thingy - it seems to be taking a bit of time....

[Ella] Nice to see you again.

Good news: just received my first official rejection letter from a major U.S. periodical. I feel like a real writer now. =)

[J] congratulations!

Yawn. Another quiet night.

I am surprised by the intensity of my loathing of Gillian McKeith tonight on telly. She is the most tasteless, boorish and annoying silly moo.

I am quite sure that I have missed some entertaining programmes over the years but, these days, I do tend to pick and choose what I watch (as opposed to sitting in front of the damned thing 'flicking around').
