filming completed, contemplating big shift in work and odd place names

On Saturday myself, Ann Wilson and Shaun made a short film featuring shots mainly of the sea on a wet and very windy day, using one of my works in progress as a voice over. I’ll post it here soon. I’m also contemplating quite a major change in my work after a friend suggested i try and merge some of my voices together. I’m happy with voice one but think i’ll have a go at the other three voices. More to follow on this soon.

In other news; I’ve got a job interview in London next week, my laptop has had its hard drive removed and replaced with a brand spanking new one, thank goodness i made back-ups, i thought the man on the phone was only covering himself when he said there was a possibility of loosing everything and, if anyone’s in Cumbria on June 26 I’m doing a reading in Cockermouth, check that out for a suggestive place name, would be interested if there’s any places near you with sexy names, how about a pub called Oily Johnnies! apparently it was once a mechanic garage, recently they shortened it to just Oily’s. I never even saw the funny side  of this until a friend came to stay and almost wet himself when we drove by.

    A friend of mine travels to Bangkok for work often, and literally banged his own …. on a pulled up suitcase handle – much to the amusement of his boyfriend:)
    Good luck with the job interview in London and are you at the Litup in Kendal on 11th June? If so, look forward to catching up and wish it was nearer to 26th I’d stick around to see your reading too.

    There’s a place in the midlands called Lickey End, narf!
    I’ve always liked the sound of Giggleswick though, not rude, just lovely.
    Hope its all going well.
