Lazy Sunday Service

A strange kind of week, running around between seminars, conference, meeting a government minister for a 'chat', travelling to Britain, talking to journalists, and general messing about.  In between I also read a strange kind of book - Warren Ellis' Crooked Little Vein, which he admits was designed to shock, offend and amuse in equal measure.  I've now nearly finished Mel Healy's much more socially realist, grounded, Another Case in Cowtown, about a foodie-loving private investigator living in Stonybatter, Dublin who is juggling multiple, mundane cases.  Hopefully its a segueway into a more mundane week.
