After two weeks of apparent inertia due undoubtedly to the repeated act of routine smashing of blogger's skull on random door posts in remote English country hobbit cottage, I'm hoping that I still have sufficient readers to warrant the resurrection of my roving blog!
Hard to believe it, but trust me, dear readers, there are still places in the civilized world without internet access or cell phone reception. Oddly enough, I have found these parts, upon recent inspection, to be some of the most pleasant locales in England's green and gorgeous lands!
And after giving up on the withdrawal frenzies of these first two weeks off radar, something rather refreshing has started to take over in the need-to-be-connected department. You really ought to try it yourself sometime. Amazingly enough, the world does continue to rotate without manic checking of one's essential email. And texting truly rocks. Except for the fact that the lucky recipients of my rambling UK texts claim that I'm confusing the instant message mobile with an opportunity for a minor novella.
Have lots to report from the happily sun-drenched small island, though camera has mysteriously frozen along with all other technological tools. Reports might come in dribs and drabs according to the time of day when internet access is an option in the midst of current big, fat, Anglo-Italian family reunion weekend.
Keep 'em peeled!
The doors and head knocking are familiar to this "Non-Brit" thanks to all the BBC shows we watch.:-) By the bye--Meloni is in her new home but "relaxing" with relatives in Seattle. Don't blame her!!
