Forecast for today...Horrible, horrible day. Raining hard from the moment we woke up, we spent the morning working, sorting out registering the book with the ISBN agency, sending a copy to the contributors, etc. and then we went off the Shrewsbury for some shopping. The highlight (if there is such a thing in shopping) was the DIY shop. You can now buy a real effect fire which is a flat screen, stuck in a real fire place effect surround, with a video of a fire on an endless loop.  They cost £699! I stood there laughing so hard there were tears running down my face and the shop assistants were giving me withering looks.
