My weekend sort of continues today as I have booked two days of ‘holiday’ from the courtroom in order to complete the last audio book of the year and get it released. I won’t actually be doing any recording until tomorrow as today I am supposed to be clearing the decks of work so that I will be able to give my all tomorrow at the microphone. Admittedly I got off to a slow start this morning by going back to bed when Mandi left the house and not waking up until ten o’clock, I thought Jack would be climbing the walls to go out for a walk/crap but he was fast asleep on the bed so I didn’t feel too bad. I felt bad waking him up from a deep sleep and removing him from a warm bed in a warm house to take him on the park in the freezing cold, but the two of us soon got over it and spent an hour playing fetch. We had breakfast, fried egg sandwiches for me and Pedigree Chum for him (I was careful not to mix the two up) before I finally parked my arse on my office chair and set about today’s to-do list.

I am not usually that great at getting on with it as I am too easily distracted, but by banning myself from YouTube and all those social media things I was able to get on with it. Before I started I considered disconnecting my Internet connection as a precaution but as I had to send a shitload of emails I could see a flaw in my plan. By some miracle I was able to cross off everything on the list of things I had to do over today and tomorrow, if only I had a trilby hat to adjust to a jaunty angle while I put my feet up on my desk and light a cigar.

A new banner has appeared underneath my big picture on this blog, PayPal emailed me (I imagine they emailed everyone with a PayPal account, I’m not imagining that I’ve been singled out as a star pupil) to suggest that I put it on my site. Everyone who clicks on it can win a prize, and I am now in line to win enough money to make some of my more expensive visions come true.

To be honest it doesn’t make very interesting reading for you poor readers, but I caught up with some of the more important emails and did some writing for a project that I won’t be starting on until the New Year. Regarding next year’s projects I have secured a band for a thing thanks to a quick post online. Having said that, the band doesn’t actually know what they have agreed to so I might have to ask around again when I tell them.
