Am back in France! We're crashing at Jo's house while the Icelandic people are away to get our e-mail and stuff. Yesterday was the Day of Eternal Waiting, or so it seemed. We got to Stansted at 11:30, approx, and the plane to Dinard was at 7:15. Good thing I had Master & Commander with me to not die of boredom. (Which makes me think that reading it is a great help for understanding the way the Navy worked, and if I listened to myself I'd need to do a massive rewrite of FoF.) Also, cannot but agree with... was it you, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
khylarenelf? about the numerous opportunities for slash in that novel. I do hope I'll be able to either buy the rest of the series second-hand, or that the school will have them for me to borrow.
I have more news about next year, btw. The high school itself is in the village of Lymm, and I will live in Grappenhall, very close by, with at least two other German assistants, Daniel and Julia. We'll be sharing a kitchen. I need to call the woman renting us the rooms as soon as I'm back in Rheims.
Also,greenie_breizh liked her present! Yay. She's now happily listening to the latest Gaelic Storm CD she received while we were away. And I bought myself the Ned Kelly DVD. Couldn't resist it in the tax free shop, not with the cast in it - Heath and Orlando wouldn't have been enough on their own, eye candy though they might be (not my style anyway), but Naomi Watts and Geoffrey Rush? Oh yes. I can't wait to watch it. (And here's to hoping Orly will prove to me that he can act in a different way, this time. Or will this be a "Will Turner the second"? No wig to help make the difference between the two roles this time.)
