cromwell 10 September 2008
I watched a programme on Irish tv last night which was a docu-drama about Oliver Cromwell and his time in Ireland. A friend of mine, Owen Roe, played Cromwell but one of the really weird things is that one of the other real historical characters was called Owen Roe too. So there were sentences which began ‘Owen Roe died in…’ that made me jolt a bit. Also the end credits were MAD with Cromwell played by Owen Roe, Owen Roe played by – ‘ and so on.
Had the drop of cholera this morning and it tastes of raspberry – who knew?
Lashing rain still but the house is cosy because the G cat is still covering it in hair for the added insulation – she just gives and she gives.
If the physicists in CERN make a black hole today, and we all fall into it, I’ll be raging to go on the dry and in the middle of this rewrite.
