It HAS been some time since the last post! Busy is the word. Very busy!
Work (earning a wage) has been a full time occupation (as I am sure my employer expects it to be) and that has left little time to indulge in work (the literary kind).
I have been up to Scotland. Re-visiting Fife. A very enjoyable and relaxing, long weekend. Eat well but slept badly. Premier Inns guarantee a good night’s sleep or your money back. Hah! The bed was terrible, the food poor, the place spotless and the staff very helpfull. I even filled in the feed-back form truthfully. Will they give me my money back? What do you think?
Bathsheba moves to its concluding chapter, but you can’t see it all yet. Mainly because I have not implemented the site update. A fair amount of graphic work to do. Delay mainly due to work (as above!)
Visited Dunwich again (museum, this time). More research for future writing. This will NOT feature on tachras as this one will be a novel. I can’t give everything for free, after all …
If there is anyone out there who is fluent in Glaswegian, drop me a line. I need a voice. Post in answer to the blog.
Back to work. Busy, busy, busy!

Premier Inns and the ‘Good Night’s Sleep’
Amazing as it might seem, after complaining by e-mail, Premier Inns refunded (YES!) the cost of the room. Success! £55 returned to me.
They, of course, only refunded 1 night’s money. Presumably, if the bed is that bad, you should have gone elsewhere. A points win, rather than a knockout victory.
Another point to note. All their beds are the same (they say in their letter), so if one bed is terrible, then they all must be terrible! Ah well, I was not planning to return.
