WHILE I was writing the last blog I had a brilliant plan to write a blog on January 1 and then write new one EVERY DAY for a WHOLE YEAR. And then I forgot. As New Year's resolutions go, that was a pretty short-lived one.
Now I'm thinking that maybe I can just start it now and finish it on January 9 next year. Which would be fine, obviously, except it would all fall down again when I go away next weekend to Lyme Regis, where the internet doesn't exist. So now I'm thinking I'll just try and blog MORE OFTEN. That'll do.
Yesterday I ate snails for the first time. It was in a French restaurant in Nottingham called French Living. They came in a special ceramic snail serving dish with a two-pronged snail spearing device. They were very tasty, but I suppose anything tastes good if you serve it in that much garlic butter. I'd have them again though. The restaurant was very good too.
Today I went for a walk in a place called Gotham. It's nothing to do with Batman though, and it's pronounced Gotem. It looked like this.
I got a bit muddy and had a nice time. I'm glad it wasn't like the Batman Gotham, I'm not interested in Batman, he's by far my least favourite superhero. He's not even a superhero, he's just a really rich man with a Messiah complex.
Then I went home and watched Liverpool capitulate against Manchester United. The game was pretty much over within half an hour, what with a penalty and a sending off both going in our favour. Still, it's always nice to beat Liverpool, so I celebrated by drinking a load of Guinness and port. It's like a rich idiot's Guinness and blackcurrant. It's nice.
