At long last we seem to be getting rain in sufficient quantities to get the rivers to rise. This is of course what we have been waiting for, but initially a problem can occure with all that summer rubbish and weed building up, and now coming down on the high water created by the rain. Still, I have been stuck in the house having a new central heating system installed - it went down with a fatal fault last winter - and I now need to get out again, I think a trip to the Warwickshire Avon might clear the head this afternoon.
The book is progressing well with just under half the leatherbound copies ordered and a fair number of the standard editions paid for and just waiting delivery. All the work has been completed at the print works with proofs checked and signed off, just waiting for my print run slot to appear on their schedule. Still on course for delivery and dispatch to me the second week of September, I'll get all pre-ordered books out immediately, and then the book launch at the Land's End Pub at Twyford, Berks, on the 17th September.
Having only recently got involved in writing this blog I am now in the process on generating a web page, interesting times and something more suited to a youger generation. I've got the domain name sorted philsmithangling.co.uk but it will not be opperative for a few weeks yet. Let you know when it is finely up and running.
