Having had breakfast, I'm now waiting for time to pass until I can head for the British Library and the Henry VIII exhibition. (I have to be there at 10am.)
I spent yesterday up near Newcastle with a friend who has also written a Chalet School fill-in (well, okay, she's done two while I'm only just working on my second one). She showed me around Durham cathedral and we had a lovely lunch at the botanic gardens. In the afternoon we chatted about all sorts of topics and she played viola and violin for me. So it was a very lovely, classical and peaceful day.
Unfortunately the trip home wasn't quite as trouble-free, what with the signals being struck by lightning, then one of the train doors sticking, and finally a car trapped on the lines. In the end we didn't get into King's Cross until almost 11pm, which is why I didn't post about the day last night.
Just as a reminder to myself, I need to write a challenge for the weekly fic prompt. I do have a few ideas...
