Leeds people about to leave work might like to know that there is a bus ON FIRE on the Otley Rd. So may be some transport troubles tonight!

Hmm - I wouldn't usually choose to be up and going for a walk at this time on a grey Saturday morning, but actually it is quite enjoyable.

What a brilliant day. Shown around Venice by my own private cicerone (Prof Mastrocinque). He was born there, so knew about everything.

I am sat in the Roman theatre, watching the sunset, with a cat on my lap. In Italy, wherever there are Roman remains, there are cats, too.

Well, yesterday may have been a bit trying, but today I have woken up in Italy, and I can see a Roman city gate from my window. Win.

We're in. Completely moved. We did it, and we're here, and I own it, and now I get to live in this beautiful house for as long as I like.

Mmm! Have just had a delicious breakfast delivered to my room on a big tray. I have never done this before, but I can now recommend it!

Wow, there is an amazing fireworks display, right in the city centre. Strangers standing together, staring sky-wards. Most cool.

Now on train back from Leeds. A very successful day - even met the seller, who turned out to be really nice. And saw Antinous exhibition!

Sitting by the Trevi fountain. Children playing in the water. All around the basin feet dangle over the edge. I don't ever want to leave!

Wow, Diana Wynne Jones day was excellent. She read from 'The Pinhoe Egg' (next Chresto book)! Took many notes, will write up soon.



strange_complex: (Purple and black phone)
Wow! I am sitting in a TV studio, about to watch a recording of QI! How cool is that? Big ups to [livejournal.com profile] kaz_pixie for getting us the tickets!

Today, the man at the kiosk had already made my coffee, just how I like it, before I even got to the front of the queue. I *heart* him.

Edit: And I found a fiver on the pavement in Leamington! Today is teh w1n!


strange_complex: (Purple and black phone)
Ah! It's snowing! :-)



strange_complex: (Purple and black phone)
Of course the commute becomes less pleasant when the bus to Leamington manages to crash into a car in front of it on the way to the station...

Mmm... Sitting in Symphony Hall in Brum, listening to a jazz trio while waiting to see Andreas Scholl. Have a good weekend, all!

55 minutes late and counting. Fully intended to attend very interesting paper in Oxford at 5.30. All hope now dashed. :(

Gah. If I was Howl, I think I'd be going round manifesting green slime a lot at the moment. That's just how I feel this week: tragic and dramatic and green slime-y.

Penny: But Ed, how did your hat get into the swimming pool?
Ed: I was wearing it, and I went swimming.

Ed: Penny, you're drinking wine!
Penny: Well, I _have_ just spent a year in Northern Ireland...
