by Ancient Woodland 2 years ago"Cate has found the plot. It was in an A4 ringbinder on the bottom shelf."
Bugger, people frequently accuse me of losing the damn thing and yet, to this day, I've never been in receipt of it!
Love the pic of the lodge BTW. I have planning permission for 12 of them (although a little larger than pictured), I could let you have one at a rather tasty price and in the best of neighbourhoods ;c) -
by Lady Cheryl 2 years agoHi Cate, hope you've enjoyed the new Harry Potter film - I'll be going soon as I can hogtie my hubbie and manhandle him into the car.
Thanks for asking to befriend me - I have accepted, since any writer with only one arm carrying a pixie on their hip clearly needs friends to help them type! xxxx -
by Tony 2 years agoSpooky! I was just looking at you in standing under the arch, looking fairly 'armless, when I got you friendly request. What could I do , but aquiesce?
Have a nice day. -
by Lady Cheryl 2 years agoHi, I love Alan Garner too - not many seem to have heard of him! I've got all his books and re-read them time and time again. What is this nonsense about some books being just for children? Good books written for children are enjoyed by adults too! I love the humour in the Hitchhiker series - got all those on my bookshelf too. If you like the books I do, you may like some of the stories I write - try my blog for the Great Cheshire Cheese Caper - I'd love to know what you think of it.
I come from near Manchester (Stalybridge) - but live in west Scotland now. Have you written anything you've put up on here for others to read?

by Tony 3 years agoHappy birthday, Cate. It's a lovely day down south; I hope it's great in (not too) Oldham as well!

by Writerguy 3 years agoThat's plenty of time. Remember time doesn't exist anyway, especially as you are creating your own universe. Still better do the washing up though...
