Okay, I'll watch the programme after my book launch, which, even though it's all sorted and there's nothing to do but show up, is taking up a lot of my time. In an exciting way! I am also finally getting my authorial website set up, although I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to keep …
Going in There
So I've got the DVD of the TV show. I'm going to watch it, honestly. On Sunday. And I'll 'liveblog' it, although that's a bastardisation of the term. God only knows what kind of hits I'm going to get off of that.
Happy Anniversary to Me!
IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF, AGAIN It hit me as I was picking out Rebel's feet: it was exactly two years to the day that I first started down this horse riding road. And look at me! I thought. How far I've come from my first lesson. There I was, confidently picking up Rebel's …

I made a decision this morning: I wasn't going to rush. Rush physically as in: from the house to the first bus stop, from the terminus to the bank machine to the next bus, from the bus to the taxi. As in mentally: doing the whole procedure in my head whilst my body moved it, …

Would this be the common mnemonic, or is it different in your part of the world?

It's the equivalent of shutting your eyes, and thinking that just because you can't see someone else, that someone else can't see you. …
