Owls, flags, films and books
And that was the week that was. New book out, another one given away for free for a few days (if only the 200+ folk who got hold of it chipped in a euro or two, ah well, good publicity), a film finished, a great night out for a friend’s birthday at the wonderful Windmill Restaurant, the first part of the last part of my scriptwriting course started (to be finished this weekend and then second part by next weekend), and an incredible weight-loss result of 0.0012 kg or something. Ah well, again. Oh, and some interesting photos. At least I think they are interesting. Here’s a jumble of cables and thing on a nearby pole at around 5.50 one morning:
In there is some kind of owl, it’s the round thing. I also took a photo of what I thought was an oriole (that’s a biscuit, surely?) but I think it turned out to be a sparrow.
And there were loads of boats in the other day all flying some very colourful flags from around the world.
But, what might be of more interest to you than this post with my dodgy pics is Lyndon’s Symi Flora and Fauna post which is about the reptiles of Symi. If you’ve wondered what the wildlife of the mountains gets up to at night, then his current post will give you some examples. Snakes, frogs, lizards, bulrushes and a much better picture of an owl than mine above, can all be found on his site here.
I will leave you for the weekend now with a gentle reminder that there is someone in your life who would like a copy of my latest comedy novel, ‘Remotely‘ and you can order them a copy simply by clicking that link.
Oh, and I’ll also leave a note in case you’re waiting on the link to the film, The Thirteenth: they are uploading it to a place where it can be password protected but as this is also going to be for potential distributors to see, it has to be the highest quality. That means a huge file and that means finding a suitable place and then waiting for an upload that could take many hours, or even days to complete. Bear with, and I’m sure it’ll be there ere long.
