Well this is a new one - my web traffic today has a whole bunch of visitors landing on my 404 page. All are from the US (apparently) and all are entering 'my URL - slash - tinkerfcu'. I think they're trying to find out if I use that particular payment processor. Fortunately I don't.

Hoardings advertising a new housing development on a slightly raised bit of land nearby tell us it will be called 'Minster View'. I imagine the sales rep hauling sceptical viewers up to a bedroom window and saying "You CAN see the Minster. It's over there, between the land and the sky".

You see, now I've secured mine I can risk telling the rest of you. I don't know how many Chris has left but it's no more than five.

Every year I stop myself from posting “now look here you lot, my books would make an excellent Christmas present” in October because it’s way too early, and then I forget until it’s way too late.
Hope I’ve hit the sweet spot this time.

Just so you know, I'm not doing a Black Friday sale, because I don't rip people off for the rest of the year. My work is priced fairly without an enormous margin that I can afford to slash for a promotion. (It is also hand made by me, a human person).

Had a rather mixed experience yesterday with local history some of which Beryl and myself do not intend to repeat.
