Missing in Action

Just a quick squiggle to say that the serpent has not been abducted by aliens. Rather she has traded in a real life tent and torrential rains in Petunia's garden for a virtual one over at nanoland
Actually it's been quite fun lurking under a fluffy quilt in the big green tent with two chooks and magpies for company and some amazing sky shows - thunder, lightening and the works. It's been raining here for the last two weeks and today was the first dry day in all that time.
Yessss. Against all better judgement especially when there's visitors from overseas at the ma's place, the serpent has decided to do the Camp nanowrimo thing and has been busy squiggling since the start of August which coincided quite nicely with Daisy's departure up north on a camping adventure. They've taken the tent too so it's back to the boring old bed for now.
The writing rules are still the same as ever. No lazing, lurking, slinking or generally slacking in Cyberia until the daily word count quota has been reached or preferably exceeded. Got some serious sprinting to do over the next few days so as to be able to slack off when the Izzie sister and co return next week from their northern camping adventures.
Otherwise, been quite crazy lately and there's been all sorts of Dursleyish dramas over the last three weeks or so. Not to mention the unusual amount of gloom and doom in the big bad muggle world out there
Found two playing cards just lying on a pavement. Both were jokers - one black and white and the other multicoloured. There were no other cards around. On the backs was a big blue logo promoting next Tuesday's census. Most peculiar indeed. It seems so like an omen especially since back in May when on holidays also found two jokers lying on the ground along with a ten of spades.
Now all that remains is to decide what to (or if to) fill in the 'religion' box on Tuesday night. This time it is optional. Oh for the good old days when the questions included such gems as "List the number of idiots and imbeciles in your household"
