A good week

Apart from hearing from Eleanor, (see below...)

I have a another piece published and one taken for September. see links...

And the Perseids were very cooperative on Wednesday. From our wee patch of sky we got two southern bound passenger jets - very high... One northern bound (yeah I know!) satelite and more than a dozen meteors - one was so big and bright I could hear it hiss! Okay - but it was spectacular and the night air was balmy and so were we for we stood for an hour getting a crick in the neck!

I had a piece of carpet - off-cut put in my little watching the rain room

EDP was off and then on-line and I finished the choices for September and we may have another team member soon - it's h u s h ;)

Not a bad week!

Surprise message - From my niece :)

I was surprised and delighted when this dropped into my e-mail box :)

There is a new comment on the post "A WEE DRAP OF HOSPITALITY • by Oonah V Joslin". http://www.everydayfiction.com/a-wee-drap-of-hospitality-by-oonah-v-joslin/Author: Eleanor Boshuisen (Kyle)Comment:

I realise this is an old story, but I never knew my Aunt was so talented. Aunt Oonah, this is a great story. I'm coming to Ballymena for a holiday. First time since we left, and I'm going to make sure I see the Causeway. Daddy gave me this site name and told me to go here. I'm not sorry he did, Love Eleanor

I haven't seen Eleanor for Ohhh 35 years maybe? All I can say is I'm glad you dropped by, love and if we can arrange it, I'll see you soon. X :)

Temporary Glich at Every Day Poets

www.everydayfiction.com and www.everydaypoets.com are both temporarily out of order - that's right - I can't get to them either...

Our trusty technogeniuses, Steven and Jordan are on the case, so hopefully we'll be back online soon.

To all those who had poems due up over this time, my apologies. They will be up! Just as soon as we get back on.

Just keep checking back to the sites.
