Well, that's that over with for another year.

Did you miss me, while I was away? Did you hang my picture on your wall?
A short update on of what I've done recently:

1) I stayed in this hotel. I sometimes think that I only do these things so I can warn other people not to. Was it bad? Well, let's put it like this. About ten years ago, I arrived home one day to find all my possessions in binbags on the doorstep and the locks changed, thanks to my delightful landlord.
And I slept in nicer places than that hotel when I was homeless. I think that says it all, really.

2) To make up for that, though, I also stayed in this delightful old place:


3) I learned that when someone says they've found a secret passage but it's locked, it actually means they're hammering on a slightly hollow-sounding bit of wall.

4) I learned that shouting "By the power of Greyskull!" during sex is unlikely to be well recieved.

5) I finished reading the Old Testament. I could go on about this one.

6) I learned that eating too much game pie has an effect upon my digestive system which may be likened to blowing hard down a trombone full of chocolate mousse.

7) You lucky lot didn't have to read my intemperate rant about the latest budget, in which Gordon Brown racked up my tax burden in order to subsidise HSBC and sundry other large financial organisations: http://www.accountancyage.com/financial-director/features/2173294/haven-wait
I bet you're glad you missed out on that one, hmn?

I'm pretty sure I did some other interesting stuff, but it all seems so long ago and far away now. Did I miss anything?

Where is that house? I think I might have stayed there too - it had a priest hole under the floor that looked decidedly cramped, and a rather nice music room.

I've noticed that all priest holes look cramped - maybe they just didn't feed priests much so they could fit in there without much discomfort...

I've never been in a priest's hole, but I expect it would be quite cramped.

That surely depends upon whether the priest is Catholic?

It's Warden Abbey near Bedford. No music room that I noticed.

Ah! No. I stayed in another remarkably similar looking house in Wales. Damn confusing historical people, building all these identical historical houses.

Why could they have put a bit more variety into their architecture?
