Three More Positives

Finally I booked the Brownie workshop at Pets At Home!  I did go in and they took our Pack name and my phone number and wrote it on the calendar for the relevant date.  No forms, no questions as to numbers ...  I had made one final attempt via the website, complaints section this time, to be told they couldn't help, contact your local store, but didn't bother to provide me with store details, even though I'd included that in my request.  I'm sure the Brownies will enjoy themselves, but do I feel valued as a customer - no comment.

We received some lovely flowers from the son this morning.  SM has been feeling rather down for a while, so to cheer him up and to thank us for his birthday present the son sent us these:



I posted the picture on Instagram and ten minutes later there was a phone call from the daughter wanting to know what had happened or what she'd forgotten.  We had a long chat which was nice.

My smallfandombang fic is finished, been beta-ed by the ever helpful fortesomniare and I've added/taken out commas, put in additional explanations where she said it would help if they weren't just in my head, and re-written the second to last scene so the POV doesn't change every paragraph.  Hooray!  Also, I finally got round to writing the ficlet inspired by one of fengirl88 Jonathan Strange fics.  It is pot/kettle and totally crack - and you really don't need to know anything about the series/book/Wellington/Napoleon or have any but the haziest knowledge of an 1815ish army: Song of the Onion
