Blimey O'Reilly, it is getting to be very nippy noodles over here in Billy Shakespeare land, as I write to you from genius headquarters (my bed). I have a hot water bottle on my head for max toastieness. I sincerely hope someone gorgeous does not unexpectedly come in.
In theory I am hard at work writing my new work of genius (as I like to call it), it's called Stop in the Name of Pants. As usual, I have had a lot of trouble getting the title past people who seem to think that I am a rude and wayward person. I wrote a book called And that is when it fell off in my hand and it was not allowed to be called that in your land (Hamburgeragogoland) because the publishers thought it was too rude.
I said, "How do you mean?"
And they said that they thought some people might think it was something rudey dudey… I don't know what on earth they mean (ish). In fact as any fool (i.e. me) could have told them, the thing that fell off was nothing to do with trouser snake addenda type stuff, but a false eyelash.
It's all quite groovy here at the mo, we are all in pre Chrimboli mood. I, of course, am trying to work but its hopeless really, people keep bursting in covered in tinsel and saying "Stop writing your childish books and let's groove."
And that is just my mum. Honestly. She is doing an M.A. in Medieval studies in York which means she mostly pretends to be Shakespeare in tights as far as I can tell. She has gone all 'studenty' and bolshie. Won't get off the couch, expects me to do her homework for her, etc... At the weekend she said "I am coming clubbing with you" even though I wasn't going clubbing, and was in fact asleep in bed. Which is probably her revenge for all the years she has had to put up with reading about herself in my books.
Anyway I must dash. Deep luuuurve…
