I don't like the NHS at the best of times but one of the main reasons I hate dealing with it is because my partner finds a way of messing it up, every single time. When I went to have the Covid Jab done, he had me running around the local shops when I should have been on the bus to the appointment. I allegedly have an appointment next week but he never sent the e-mail to my inbox so all I have is a cryptic message

on his phone... And now the dog is supposed to be scared... Fucks sake, stop blaming me for something you didn't do. You make it more stressful than it needs to me.

On the day I had a hospital appointment, he also got us on the wrong bus...

Sometimes, I don't think the publishers get the right narrators for an audiobook.

It would be nice if there was a listening service which you could join for sci-fi and fantasy. I'm fed up of waiting for Listening Books to update their catalogue.

I've been watching Hornblower's The Frogs and the Lobsters. It's almost a parody...

There is a great dane having an operation on it's knee and it's making my dodgy left knee hurt in sympathy just by watching it.

Ah - there seems to be a conspiracy among bookcase manufacturers to put people off buying non-fiction books. I bought these, because the listing said that the shelves were adjustable, but they aren't so I suspect that they won't fit the oversized large non-fiction books that I have. Even more bizarre, the bookcase appears to be two bookcases that you join together, with the smaller one on top of the bigger one, but

on the plus side, they have solved the problem of the dodgy back that has a tendency to come off if you push books onto it too far.

I'm going to watch the next episode of Hardaches, do a crumble and then see if I can get one of the bookcases up. I just hope that there is enough space for most of the unshelved books.

The bookcases arrived today - they aren't as tall as expected, but they are at least put upable... When you have medical issues, furniture that is too bulky and heavy is impossible to assemble without help and I prefer to be independent regarding such things if I can.

I started reading The Waking of Angatyr last night and I only intended to read a couple of chapters, but ended up reading until I was about 100 pages in - it has that rare quality of a book where you constantly want to know what happens next.

Marie Brennan is the best author that I've come across in a long time. Wish I'd read her books sooner.

Although I have listened to some of my favourite books this year (Herriot, Tolkien, Adams), the books by Marie Brennan is the reading/listening highlight of the year.

I finally ordered the bookcases - they should be here next week.

I get tired of people wanting me to sell my books. Nope. They are staying where they are.

Our local Waterstones is really good with mythology and academic pagan history books at the moment. I just wish they were better at stocking sci-fi and fantasy books.

I have been lucky at the RSPCA shop, again, this time a bunch of Sharpe books. I now have a good start with collecting them. I'll pop in next week to see if they have more of them.

My back is currently killing me - I've just come back from food shopping and packing and setting up the new craft drawers so that I can finally get that back room organized. They aren't as big as the Really Useful Box ones, but I like them because they are easier to move around. I'll most likely put my miniatures in them.

Listening Books should be having all of the Seven Kennings Trilogy on the site soon (they have Curse of Krackens on already). I'm just waiting for the first two to go up.
