I have decided to start a collection...
... pencils. Less expensive than cars, greener and ultimately more useful.
I have several from the last couple of days, two with rubbers on the end. May also start a parallel pencil sharpener collection. Pencil sharpeners I believe are the cheese graters of the admin world.
Stayed in a swanky bijou hotel in Glasgow last night and we all agree - hotels are too hot in the morning. We all convened in reception sweating from our showers, baths and panicky getting ourselves together.
The signing is going well, last night in Manchester we had less than Peter Andre but more than Freddie Flintoff ! Hilarious. Also met four fab blogettes, here they are -
Left - Right: Jackeygirl (kate greely), Msscoobycat (clare yapp), Alright_flower (lisa robinson), Manchester Calling (katy ashton)
This morning already on the road for a warehouse stock signing of a thousand books and then off to Radio Scotland to see my good friend Fred MaCaulay on his show, before another signing in the city itself and then on Newcastle.
Go Go Go babies..
Big kiss to Sal from our P.R. company whose head connected with my car door ten minutes ago, and now has the kind of egg you don't want for breakfast.

Annie- fingers crossed for the good news for you -x-
I'm finally getting things sorted out here in prep for the big day. El-Bumpo is moving southwards so Mum is getting on my case about paking the hospital bag. I've started with a list and now have to work out how to fit it all in. It's a lot easier to pack for a week skiing!!
Have to have the cot-bed exchanged today as the one that was delivered has marks on. Still feel like there's loads to do but I'm sure it will be fine. I'm a big believer in "go with the flow".
Shame I won't get to get to a book signing but I met CLP some time ago and he was luvly then as I'm sure he still is.
Right... off to have a quick dance (thanks for the idea Deev) and then I'd better get some clothes on and take the Booboo out.

It's a wonder yerv noot goot writters cramp!!!!!!!!!
If a waz you, me arm would feel like it waz gonna drop off.... a should now, sorry know, after filling in yet anoother railway job application set of forms and questions last week!!!!!!
Maybe ave been using computers too much and don't use the wrist enough!!!!!!!!
Talkin' of which... using computers... been wreeting me own boook and maybe that's why a enjoy wreeting az an adult but 'ated english lessons at school!!!!!
Ave discovered it's all ter do with the wrist and the pains, the cramp that ensues thus causing the tension of the 'and, tension of the arm ter build up, thus causing the tension of the mind ter build up.... thus causing me nooot ter be able ter wreet..... ter think clearly thus ending up coming near last in me schoool english exams!!!!!
(although a ave since returned ter night schoool a few years a go and goot me GCSE in english!!!)
All that Shakesphere stuff used ter do me 'ead in!!!!!!!!!! NYA!!!
It's only now az an adult that ave found out by accidentation, mainly from wreeting on this blog, that a most enjoy wreeting..... aka az me wrists, 'ands, arms and mind are noot in termoil and pain (well maybe the mind iz sometimes.. most can see that by whatta wreet on the blog) thus allowing the creative juices thatta didn't now, sorry now, a 'ad at schoool ter..... errrr flow!!!!!!
Suddenly realised this iz sounding a little rude when it's noot meant ter be!!!!!
Am talkin' all innocent 'ere about wreeting!!!!!!!
Any way.... a waz getting a bit depressed about wreeting me own boook az a felt a don't seem ter be wreeting enough and often enough az am always so busy!!!!!!
Well the news, although me boook iz going well... a don't know where it's going!!!!!
Yer see am still on chapter 5... the chapter thatta started on (noot done 1 ter 4 yet) and after roughly counting the numbers of words ave writted.... IT'S 9,0000!!!!!!!@!!!@!!!@!!@!!!!
Just on the one chapter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@!!@@!!@@!@!@!
Which iz a tenth.... the length of most booooks!!!!!
The only problem am still on chapter 5 and only a third the way through it!!!!!!!
So maybe ave goot so much ter wreet a could either break me stroy inter a BIG series aka bring out 20 boooks.... instead one boook of 20 chapters..... or maybe this chapter 5 iz just a one off and a should break chapter 5 inter a little series all of it's own aka 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g aka chapters.... errrr within.... me chapter!!!!!!!!!
Soz am getting confused know, sorry now!!!!!!!!
Maybe i'll never finish me boook az it'll give me a nervous breakdown just trying ter arrange me chapters!!!!!!!!!!
Back ter what a came on 'ere ter wreet about???????
Errrr.... oh I yeah!!!!!!!!!
CLP - VERY nice ter see you blogging on yer week off (forgoot ter say this yesterdee)..... and VERY nice ter see some photos of fellow bloggies!!!!!!!

TO comment (or reply) to CLP, you need to follow him. Once you have created your Twitter account/identity, go to "Find People" and search for achrisevans then once CLP is beaming at you from his glorious thumbnail piccie, click on "Follow achrisevans" and then you should get his Tweets on your homepage. To reply, after each Tweet if you hover to the right of the Tweet content, there's a curvy arrow - click on this and type your reply in the box at the top.

Really fab to meet other bloggers, ChrissieS, Rips and MWK! Obviously as well as Chris himself. What a great guy!!! Thanks chris you really made our day. Left ChrissieS and MWK with their wine - very jealous as I had to go to work! Ladies hope you have a blast of an afternoon! And for anyone up in Glasgow I think the pics of MWK and ChrissieS will be in Evening Times, Scottish Sun and possibly Daily Record! Go girls!

Loving your Twitterings and Bloggerings. With all this extra social networking based communication, it's a good job you're not having to rush all around the country as well!
Well done to all that have managed a mini meet. Every time I see the phrase book signing, it reminds me of that great one liner (by someone whose name now evades me) "I went to a book signing the other day...and managed to scrawl my name in 15 of them before they threw me out of the library"
Off now to follow some tweetings
Love to all

Have joing the CLP bloggers on facebook but haven't got round to chucking friend invites out although a couple of peeps have found me which was nice.
Flower - don't get twitter either and I can't find anything out about it. Maybe we need a lesson from Deevs as she seems to have a handle on it!
Cambridgeshire had rain this morning (proper heavy rain too) - first time for a month - phew that will save me watering my garden tonight, lol!

Not sure I'd want to be stalked though cos then I'd have no secrets left!
Good luck on the book tour Chris - am sure it will all go swimmingly.

It was from Dog with no brain..... I would say that I have been on Twitter for months and why you should say "Plum up to the same games" I have no idea. You certainly won't be able to follow me because you need permission. I don't think I care to follow you either.
I don't make comments I just like to read talented peoples musings. When I have anytime.

My only advice ter CLP would be Fridee iz 'demolison derby dee' on the roads and driving down the M4.... well i'd say leave early ter get ter the Cribbs shopping complex az if the M4 iz closed, az it often iz on a Fridee, it could all go inoperatative for 12.30 kick off - know what am sayin'!!!!!!!!!!

If you play the game you cannot then complain when you get it back that's all.
I don't care if you do or don't, it's all fine and dandy having standards, just not double ones.
Not looking for a row either, just merely pointing out something nasty you typed. Why didn't you reply on that website instead of bringing your spite and reply to this one.
You tell us about your great humour...

So do I ignore them? Yes I should but then again why should somebody be able to be so rude.
It amount's to Cyber bullying and taking over websites to get noticed.
I prefer to stay in the background as I think a few people do on here and other websites.
I think I should be allowed to respond as I certainly keep my twittering private.

Did I mention you im any way, shape or form? I think not.
Your words (post #95) describe your exact way of operating. The only antagonistic one here is yourself. The only one inciting any form of "cyber bullying" is yourself. And as for "staying in the background" - you are only content when you are turning this normally happy playground into a place of turmoil and back-biting.
We're all bored of you now. Either join in or practice what you keep preaching and find another hunting ground.
Yours, truly baffled

Sorry I must have it all wrong you are an angel.
You always use the term we.. are you not an individual that can speak for herself without rounding up the gang to back you up.
I am not very clever when it comes to winning arguments I have not had enough practice in that department.
You say you have had enough of the creature as you called me.
So I wish you well but if I feel I want to contribute to the blog ´óÏó´«Ã½ permitting I will and you will stop putting me in a bad light.
