Feeling like a hypochondriac today as I apply an ice pack to various parts of my ancient body. I have been asked to play league cricket again next Saturday where all my team mates will be half my age! So more ice-packs beckon!!!!!

I promised I would say something about our Book Club meeting on Wednesday. As previously mentioned we were talking about Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas. Excellent discussion at a beautiful location. We were in a garden right by the River Severn and as we arrived the Bore came surging past Northwards, amazing witnessing the power of the incoming tide. It took about 20 minutes or so before the River was flowing in the opposite direction back to sea. All of us really enjoyed Under Milk Wood and we talked quite a bit on being exiled from the world you grew up in.

Spent some time going over the final, final proof. I had thought I had finished but was sent back the amended draft for approval. Fingers crossed I will have a publication date soon.
