    Confession time

    Haven't touched a razor since Boxing Day. Seems to suit me, but since I've also lost 25lbs that may be a factor. It's staying a while, anyway. Nobody's shouted "Oi Gandalf" at me yet either.

    Confession time

    Three and a half weeks now. Was told, with my hair tied back, that I looked like George V. Having looked him up, they had a point.

    Extremely wobbled!

    I think it's whinging. And that you're not. Good luck, not that you'll need it.

    Post your watches

    Bbc sherlock

    God, I hope not. Best thing that happened to the series was getting rid of that hysterical Dr-Who-flavoured campfest. Rest of the episode was great, though.

    Any suggestions for detective stories ?

    Re: RE: Any suggestions for detective stories ? Not really classical whodunnit detective stories (except Five Red Herrings and maybe The Nine Taylors - a work of genius), in that the "who" is mostly obvious, but brilliant novels, by far the best literature of all the Golden Age stories. I'm a...

    It has been fifteen days since my last shave (I have a Van Dyke anyway). I'm enjoying it.

    What are you reading at the moment?

    Recently finished Saladin Ahmed's Throne Of The Crescent Moon, which I liked a lot. Before that was Kim Stanley Robinson's Shaman, which I liked even more, though it's a minor work by his extraordinary standards. As a direct result I'm reading an actual paper book - Robinson's Red Mars - and...

    Visconti Inks ???

    I haven't, but I have long thought that their smaller ink bottles, middle pic above, are superbly designed. And I cover a Homo Sapiens fountain pen, I truly do.

    ***COMPLETE***For sale Bill Jack Le Tuft 59 in Buckeyed burl

    I queued for ages at the post office and then spent the rest of the day with friends, so I literally opened the package five minutes ago. You're a good photographer, but this thing is far more beautiful than I expected, and I expected a lot. Thank you.
