Thanks to interventions of friends (parcels!!) today started significantly better than yesterday. Still lots of not-good things, but amidst the not-good were some gems. I think my favourite of the gems has to be the cover of Baggage. Soon, soon, there will be a picture. Not too long after, there will be copies for sale. In the meantime, you might check out what eneit thinks of the cover.

I've just spent a rather lovely evening with friends. We watched some vintage Bugs Bunny (with chips and chardonnay) and then we watched three episodes of Zorro's Foreign Legion (we polished off the chips and chardonnay). Our main course was steak and Bogart/Bacall and a fine red. Dessert was Jaffas and Fantales and those German spice cakes covered in dark chocolate.

Now I have a full evening's work ahead of me, but the day is so firmly tipped towards happiness that I'm looking forward to it. No food or wine accompaniments. I think I might just have overeaten.
