Frozen Over

It must be cold in Hell - in fact, frozen over. This must be the day. As in, "That'll be the day." All of that stuff. Because I actually made it through Saturday - yesterday - without finding it necessary to go in to the office to rectify some new disaster regarding the database system. Group Theory dictates that eventually things must 'settle' into stability. That's what Groups do - groups of things as well as groups of people. Of course, that stability is encouraged and enforced through human machinations - in this case, ME! I'm gonna quit talking about this now before karma jumps up and bites me in the butt.

I've started gathering things together for the trip. I asked someone to guest blog for me on Friday - so that covers me for travel on Thursday evening. I will introduce my guest blogger tomorrow so you have a chance to visit her before she blogs for me. You know - so you can get to know her.

I am taking both my Canon DSLR and my Fuji Point and Shoot - so there will be plenty of photographs to post here over several days after we get back.

The story of "The Hackney Dragon" is finished. Part 2 will publish on Tuesday. I really had to wrestle with the end of the piece - but I think I have it the way I want it now. It probably won't change much between now and Tuesday.

Oh - and I think I've figured out why things have been going so slowly with Sarah's story. I skipped over a couple of days of time, at the beginning of the story. Now I now I have to tell that bit of the story, as well. She isn't going to allow me to get any further with her story until I go back and cover that missing two days - so I've started on it and it's working out nicely.

It won't be long before I start publishing the story - in small and frequent chunks.
