Hello, my name is Chrissy, and I have been writing The Waters of Love trilogy since 2011!
It is the memoir of Quaver Tune, the bass player in a band from New Zealand called Loverisque. She's in this band along with Stafford, Seth and Blake.

Just the odd tune I'm not keen on, but what it proves to me is... I absolutely love '80s synth tunes. I must seek some on my birthday in... two days time!

Hot flashes are not just the domain of the menopausal. They are in the domain of the perimenopausal, too.
I was cold earlier, got under my duvet. An hour later, roasting... and I still haven't cool down. I don't have a fever, either.

The wind is fucking awful tonight. House keeps creaking, I keep hearing bins falling over.
The roof is already fucked, we are so closed to getting it fixed, in fact housemate asked me to give him three companies to get quotes from.

You know what. I had a window of 30 mins. To walk the ten mins to the Lidl, get my cat food and a few other things, and get the bus home. It's not raining at the moment. Or windy.
🤞 I get home before the next deluge.

Well, I have fucked up posting this twice today. Blame the rain?
The gist is, Stafford is interested in fashion, hence scene needs a rewrite, and especially so when Quaver is wearing said fashions.

Since Amazon messed up my cat food order, I am forced to go out in Storm Bram. Yay?
Cat food has been problematic of late. The cats have always liked the same stuff, but now suddenly, they're turning their noses up at it.
Thought I had a good supply of dry food, but nope.

However, the weather is absolutely feral outside. Heavy rain and very windy.
And I'm supposed to go out and get some stuff for my birthday celebrations 😕

On something a touch stronger for the asthma, turns out the spring cleaning made me more reactive than normal.
First time I checked is, can you drink alcohol with this?
Because my birthday is on Thursday, and my plan is to have a jolly good time in Edinburgh.

The fruits of 1979. Another Loverisque album, another tour... and an unexpected pregnancy. So all that shagging Seth and Quaver did when they got back together had a result... Sapphire Madonna Blackadder.

Wanna know why this 'ring at 8 am' thing at the doctors doesn't work?
I call and there are 31 people ahead of me in the queue. So I'm looking at an hour on the phone, and a high chance no appointments will be available by the time I get a human on the line.

Spoke to my dad for the first time in a while last night. Hearing he has arthritis in his back and still has a heart issue scares me shitless. He's 65, nearly 66. Still goes to the gym all the time.
Showed me his growing vinyl collection. I had a laugh at that... in the late 90s, he sold his LPs.

Haven't eaten since yesterday afternoon. My asthma is playing up, and at this rate, if I keep having to reply on my blue inhaler, I will need something a bit stronger.
And I can't be like this on a busy week because it's my birthday week!

The filming of the telly adaptation of Quaver's first memoir had her feeling all kinds of weird. After filming one afternoon. she and Luke took off in the car to La Perouse, of all places.

Me in bed fucking exhausted after being in Glasgow with the housemate. Then coming home and sorting more shit in my room so I can get a desk and better drawers in here.
One of the things I recovered the other night was my Simpsons duvet cover. So I got a new duvet for it 🍩

The period between 1983 and 1987 was awkward... swinging with Stafford, Jamie and their wives.
It soon moved into private meetings in hotels and the like. Something Quaver became uncomfortable with.
Yet, Quaver, you were in a hotel with Jamie in this scene!

Hair refuses to straighten today. It looks like I did absolutely nothing.
Thank god the dead shit is getting chopped off next week and to top it off, a deep treatment.

So Edinburgh's ATC went down and wow, planes diverted all over the show. Glasgow, Manchester, Newcastle, Dublin. Even Glasgow Prestwick.
Shit happens.

April 1967, and Quaver finally comes face to face with someone she's seen on the telly, heard so much about...
and it was not Stafford, she'd reunite with him the month after.
Welcome to Quaver's world, Frank Sandoval!

Well, today I was going to tag along with my housemate while he gets his car serviced... except the car place is in the middle of nowheresville. Walking to the nearest civilisation is 20 minutes away.
Still, escaping my village is a grand idea.

In the early 00s, there was a high chance those pop songs you heard were penned by a couple of Wiltshires... Stuart and his sister in law, Quaver. Quaver used her married name for songwriting credits and out of the public eye, so Tune was purely her stage name by then.
