(no subject)

I took twinkledru to the train station this afternoon, and so the two days of having someone who completely understood me when I talked about fandom are over. ;-)

We went into Bath last night, the first time I'd been out for dinner without the kids since February last year. We went to Xian in Charles Street, which I am pleased to report, is just as good as it was when Doug and I were going there regularly seven years ago. I also introduced Jules to Deep Fried Crispy Seaweed, as I have yet to meet someone who doesn't like it.

This morning I took her to the Bookbarn, which claims to be Europe largest seller of second hand books. It's basically a hugely warehouse, full of bookshelves stuffed full of books. I was most impressed, in that she managed to restrain herself to just three books. I have never come out of there without buying several books. Possibly I'm just weak willed. ;-)

Am trying to work on my NCIS ficathon, and not getting anywhere. Which is a problem as it's due in two days, and I want to get it beta'd before I submit it. Problem is, all I want to be writing at the moment it Doctor Who fic.

Must do better.

Also, is it completely wrong that Thursday's bombing made me feel nostalgic? Took me right back...
