(no subject)

Early Sunday afternoon, throat like sandpaper - too many cigarettes lasts night (and one burning now), I fancy, combined with arguably too much red wine and port. No bed for Bryan until 4am, and he's not used to it anymore. Of course.

DT and the visiting [livejournal.com profile] pax_draconis managed another hour and more port, I understand, but your correspondent was too knackered. On the other hand, while I have ben footling around now for some hours, and DT is killing aliens down on his computer, there is no sign of Ser Andrews surfacing from the spare bedroom. We might have to lock it down and send in the troops with a loud Raus! Appel! It worked in Colditz. Well, when the inmates weren't busy escaping, anyway.

Much of yesterday afternoon and evening was taken up in general plot discussion for NWO; just three of us, [livejournal.com profile] pax_draconis, [livejournal.com profile] jfs and me. Very productive it was too, as we tied of some loose plot threads. Happily John was making notes since my memory is already discarding much of the detail.

It must have been extremely clear outside last night - the frost has bitten down quite remarkably. Out back the sun has moved around, and the shadows have reclaimed the passage extension roof. They are both still covered in frost that did not melt in the sunlight. The sky is still very blue and it is a fine day indeed. Tonight is going to be a bark-cracker, or would be if there were any trees to crack.

More later, perhaps.

It was clear here too. When we left [livejournal.com profile] boglin's last night, my car thermometer said -6 degrees. EEK!

Oh Lordy.

Toe-curlingly cold for England. I remember the days when the weather would change gradually and let us acclimatise first.

Not sure if I should mention it here, but the bark-cracking comment seemed relevant given how Drew Bledsoe must feel at the moment.

How about them Redskins?

Ummm ... some notes. Mainly about influence and circles ... (if that makes sense)
