Normal Service Will Be Resumed As Soon As Possible

For various reasons, I have found myself unable to write over the last two or three weeks - beyond the odd comment on GB or other blogs. As a result, this marathon has stalled.

The reasons are varied. Work around the house has taken up more than the usual amount of time, as we try to integrate the items we brought back from my late father-in-law's house. That has gone quite well, but there's still a lot to do. In addition I had to go to the magistrate's court to fight my ESA appeal. I won - again - but as a result of the stress I was unable to do anything but lie down for the next 24 hours, and am still recovering ten days later. It is also SATs this week, which affects me both as a parent of a Year 6 child and as a teaching assistant. (The combination is also awkward for the school, as there are only six children taking the Level 6 papers, including Isaac - so they have to find someone else to invigilate, as there's an obvious conflict of interest in me doing it!)

I might fit in a bonus review of some DVD extras for The Chase that I missed, but otherwise it will be at least a week before I post anything. Take care!
