This is getting a bit boring now, seeing as I have to nearly every day, come rain or shine and I have no car. Anyway, I was about a third of the way there when I thought 'Uh Oh' because ... http://www.henrythethirst.com/index.php?p=203 There was a time when I had lovely handwriting. It was unusual because I am left-handed. People of the sinister persuasion have to learn things differently and I can generally spot the manuscript of a left-hander. I watch out for them too. A lot of actors are lefties and a lot ... http://www.henrythethirst.com/index.php?p=202 A letter arrived. It's a copy of a letter sent from the hospital of no public transport and much diarhhoea.
