It’s been a brilliant evening with much productivity.<\/p>\n
Vin and I schooled in the indoor arena (I love that facility!) and Vin, it’s no exaggeration to say, was a complete and utter star. He showed real class from the moment we started our working-in through to completing the exercises that JP set as our homework.<\/p>\n
It’s bloody cold up at the yard, the sudden drop in temperature has put a biting chill on everything; during the day Vin’s been stepped up to his medium-weight, full-cover New Zealand rug. At night he’s on double stable rugs, the outer being a full-cover medium-weight too; he’s as warm as toast underneath his layers – wrapped right up to his ears.<\/p>\n
After kisses, hugs, pats and carrots it was homewards bound. The journey is starting to get hazardous. The quantity and thickness of fallen leaves on the country lanes makes driving less certain, but you wouldn’t think so to see some of the twunts who come zooming around tight corners as if they have a direct line to Gravity Dot Com. The crossroads just west of Leafield is, in particular, v.dangerous.<\/p>\n
Anyway.<\/p>\n
The Joneses are at home. Tea has been cooked and eaten, the washing up has been, erm, washed up and tomorrow morning’s podcast has been recorded early and ftp’d to the server – though not released yet (but trust me on this… tomorrow’s episode is a four star blinder!).<\/p>\n
Mugs of tea have been dispensed and an episode of Little Dorrit is on the television. And then bed. And an episode of Angel, perhaps?<\/p>\n
But if any little fuckers come knocking at the door looking to extract money or sweets through the annual process of extortion we call “Hallowe’en” they’re in for two chances. Slim and No. And Slim’s just left town.<\/p>\n
We’re off to London village tomorrow to attend a book launch. I’ll write about that in detail another time, I don’t think the author would want his work to be associated with such ramblings in this post. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
On Sunday we’re off to Worcestershire to be royally fed by the in-laws. I think we should stop eating now in preparation.<\/p>\n
