Yesterday bateleur and I celebrated our eighth wedding anniversary. My parents were babysitting so we went to Swans (the best local restaurant) and then came home for drinks. It appears that we have managed to settle into a routine, see this !

Additionally Frances sent me a detailed review of Mourn's Gift. It agreed with most of the points that chrestomancy (and bateleur) made and gave me some ideas of how to improve the structuring of my writing to make a detailed plot more understandable (not to mention dealing with the problems caused by a cast of thousands). Some of this won't come in until I start book number three, though, 'cos my second book is over half-way through. There was also another vote for Obero as favourite character (who she described as "a slightly conceited shiny pigeon"). That gives Obero two votes, Mire one and Varilor one. And that copy will now be passed to venta.

My mother returned the Buffy and Angel tapes for episodes in the late-teens and the Hex trilogy (which she enjoyed) in exchange for the end of Buffy and Angel and bateleur's copy of Waking Dream. She'll also get the latest Harry Potter - once bateleur has finished with it.

All in all, a good day.

Congratulations :).

Without sounding odd, it's kind of inspiring knowing that couples can work that I know, rather than just my parents...

I think Kate and Dan come into that as well ;)

What about chrestomancy and Frances ? I have to admit, I have no idea how they work, but they do.

And then there's cuthbertcross and Rob. Soon to be more locally based.

I think Kate and Dan come into that as well ;)

Was that written just so floralaetifica could read it ?! That might be considered stirring y'know... (although I agree with you ;-) ).
