To infinity and beyond!

I am in Edinburgh visiting my sisters, and new nephew. I've never claimed to be the most up-to-the-minute person when it comes to entertainment, but it is a bit much to be beaten to Skyfall by someone who is only a fortnight old today and had his first trip to the pictures on Tuesday. I shall be going on Satuday evening.

It is, as ever, colder in Edinburgh than in Oxford, which is a major reason I don't want to move here. But I came prepared in a big coat, and have bought myself a slightly more practical (less swirly) new one from Zara. It has little metal studs all over the sleeves and would not be completely out of place in a British 70s science-fiction television series. It is much nicer than it sounds.

November* brings picowrimo, which I shall be doing again, but not until Monday.

*Ritual "how is November here already?"

There is no such thing as too many coats.

Once the nephew gets to about 18 months, they won't be able to go to the cinema again for years (apart from the hell that is family screenings of certificate U films on a Saturday morning) and you will catch up.

That's a beautiful coat!

Oh yes, I see... (re: coat)

That reminds me - I'm in Oxford next weekend - would you be around at all to meet for a coffee? I'm busy on the Saturday but ought to be free on the Sunday afternoon.

Hope new nephew is fun!

No, it can't be November already!

Living in Edinburgh is worth the cold (and the wind) - one gets used to it...
