Today I saw a French man, a proper one in a beret, buying croissants in Marks&Spencer's. How terribly unadventurous of him. He ought to have tried an Eccles cake.

There is another man who lives on the Old Friends DVD for whom I have a certain amount of love. I don't mean the singing men. I mean a man in the audience. He looks like a professor who didn't go home to change between his last lecture of the day and the concert, and he sings along to 'Slip Sliding Away.'

S&G. I have read half a book in less than a day. Paul Simon's biography. This is quite unheard of. I'm wondering what it would've been like to be a classmate of Simon & Garfunkel and to remember them passing notes to one another under the desks and everything. I think it would be slightly great. It would depend partially on how successful you were yourself, or how unselfish and lacking in jealousy. One of the two.

And the other thing I wanted to say is that I've lopped 1,200 words off my nanowrimo effort. There is some abominable extra wordage in there. I'm more than halfway through the editing anyway.

I don't know what happens after editing.
