Another stop-gap post, as I can feel the rushing air created by dozens of once-eager readers stampeding away from my blog.

I haven't posted for a couple of days as I was enjoying LeicBlogCon 2002! with the divine Maddie, which, I note, she has already described on her own site. It was super fun, of course, with Maddie the ultimate party hostess with the mostest (grazes and bruises). As she also mentioned, one possible highlight of the weekend was going to see, out of choice, a rather small viking battle re-enactment. Several smelly men and portly girls in potato sacks and chain mail shouting Mary Whitehouse Experience-style insults at each other ("you know that Leofric the Unbearably Noxious? You know his armpits? That's you, that is"), before attacking each other with unseemly ferocity, cutting each others shields (and, in the case of the Liam Neeson lookalike, forehead) to ribbons and dying, unconvincingly. They were sweating pretty convincingly, though.

But now I'm back in London, wondering whether Robyn and Amy have got their own weblog yet or whether I'll be continuing to tidy up after them like a pair of over-enthusiastic and under-house-trained mongrel puppies. Keep 'em peeled for more housework/cycling/swimming-centric fantastic blog entries! Yeah!
