Typed in about 500 words today of The Tower, I have broken the 6,000 word mark, only 1,000 words to type in. Went to the park with my wife, son and grandchildren. Fed the ducks, the seagulls and the geese. My granddaughter called the geese big ducks. And neither my son or wife would believe the white birds were seagulls, even when they screed like them.
Screed, John Screed of the Havengers...
That comment could have been so funny on so many different levels, a bit like telling a string of jokes in a lift...

Crackling
Typed in 500 words of The Tower today. Felt ill though and went back to bed afterwards. It looks like I'll not get it typed in until Monday. No Easter eggs for me.
Today I heard that a pig farm burned down, I thought I heard some crackling.

Poached Poachers
I typed in about 1,200 words today, some at home and some in Starbucks. I seem to written more of my books in Monk's Cross Starbucks than Central York Starbucks. Just pasted the last 300 words I've done so far into the document.
How do you make an elephant laugh?
Tickle his ivories.
That's if he still has them and they haven't been pulled out of his head by poachers. Poachers, maybe they should be poached, as in egg.

The Lord of the Rings
I managed to type in 1,200 words of The Tower and added a sentence. I am half way through and might be able to finish it by Saturday.
Have been trying to think of what the next book of Kendra might be. I sort of had a dream, or was thinking when snoozing, about another daughter of his being brought into the adventure. But I don't really like that.
At some time Chelnuk is going to become too old or infirm to carry on and may return to the bosom, a bit like Bilbo going to the Western lands in the Lord of the Rings.
The Lord of the Rings, I wonder if Billy Smart was ever called that?

Government Target
Typed in 1,200 words of The Tower in today, that makes a total of 2,250 words so nearly a third of the way through.
Today's news bit was how terrible Stafford Hospital was. So people must have seen how bad it was and how bad it was getting but still carried on trying to hit government targets even though people were dying through neglect. that reminds me of the joke I saw on Facebook today.
Government Target.
There was a traffic jam near the houses of Parliament. Somebody got out of the car behind me and knocked at my window.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"Terrorists have taken over the Houses of Parliament and are threatening to douse them all in petrol if they don't get £10,000,000 in cash."
"Are you taking donations?"
"Yeah."
"What's the average donation?"
"About a gallon."

Rubberising
Managed to proof read the last 4,350 words of The 24 today. Had some sweets and a coffee to help me do it, and half a Kit Kat. Sent it away to 8 Facebook friends for them to review it.
Tried to finish rubberising the bath today, but the silicone rubber I tried to use was two years out of date and had started to set from the outside in, so I only got half of the bath done.
Tomorrow I need to get on with typing in the Tower, and possibly the cover for one or both books.

Hardline Pro
Proof read 3,000 words of The 24 today. I will only have to do just over 4,000 words on Monday now. Wrote two little lists of all the things I want to complete.
Was playing Black Ops with my son today, we could not help each other do the Hardline Pro objective. He did it but had the wrong Keypad. I got close but died. We will try it tomorrow when we have rested.
