Holmes spoke in a low voice, in the unmodulated manner of the man who cannot be sure whether he will stay the course. I shall retire for a few days, Watson. Tell Mrs Hudson to send all visitors away. No new cases. I will be in my study. Get me paper and coloured pencils, will you, Watson? Leave them by the door. Ah, one more thing. I want the wifi off.

I'll be closing my shop for a much needed rest on the morning of Friday 20th. Friday will be my last post office run, so buy now if you need it soon! Reopening 27th.

FYI, I have 5 short stories to finish before the end of the month, on top of work.

I've filtered out most politics and mentions of Jesus for 1 week to save my sanity and stop the doomscrolling.

If you see me retooting, poke me and tell me to get back to writing!

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder, should I get up
And fix myself a drink?
No…

I'm so tired, I don't know what to do
I'm so tired, my mind is set on you
I wonder, should I call you?
But I know what you would do

You'd say I'm putting you on
It's no joke, it's doing me harm
I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
It's 3 weeks, I'm going insane
I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind

Party, forget all
No politics, no more war
Madness certainly
