ahhh! 
it's really a saga, a saga in the true norse traditions, by Thors hammer, there you go a title, the hootoo, was conceived by a drunk English bloke in a medow around Innsbruke, so its fitting to have a saga title! Rhinemaidens and vairkery, woven in to the mix too 
just a thought

Realm of the Dark Elves?
Interesting! I love Pratchett's depiction of Elves as being like cats, apparently lovely, but indifferently vicious bustards.

cooler! had his hat on and we talked about beer, and stuff, discused the fact that the village is full of film people! and how the national trust makes a living out of renting out film stages! Dame Judi dench (full costume and other cast) in a the other bar! it was so sreall! also how my village has changed over the past ten years, as his village has, the influx of people who know nothing about living in a country enviroment, by the fact they can buy into village but yet can't stand the smells, sights, vacate it during the day to work else where, send their kids to school outside the area, oops! sorry

It's my rant too. I was born and raised in Gloucestershire, but it's full of film stars now. I am so glad he was cool.
I spent one day at the Cheltenham Literature Festival going to a talk by him, a talk by Ian Dury, and a talk by Richard Dawkins. Now if they could have got them all onto a single stage....

Hi
Been crazy busy. A ton of wood IS a huge pile. Have you seed the new 
Smiley? I rather like it, and now seems a good time to use it.
Gloucestershire? I was born and raised between Painswick and Gloucester, but vale rather than hill, then my Pa was a clergyman in a village in the Cotswolds between Cirencester and Letchlade, and then I lived for about 10 years between Cirencester and Stroud. So a little bit of all over, really.
I miss it, but I miss it MORE when I am back there than I do when I am away, if that makes any kind of sense at all. I've resigned myself to not being who I expected to be. Fortunately life is Far More Interesting than I expected.

we have had a really productive day! our local bishop has got rid of the pain in the ass local vicar (i feel really sorry for his missus and kids) and is to open the squib party on the common for us (the village) is really important asls the verger is to get the keys back to the church (the new vicar took the keys off the verger about 3 months ago, bearing in mind the keys have been in the vergers family for the last 400 years) i think it might not be the same key 
but this vicar has been like vinager in a wound!

Good to see a bishop pulling his weight. My pa was a clergyman, but not the stupid sort. As a friend of mine said once, "what sort of clergyman is it who has tattoos?" Mind you they probably all do now.
