I am British, but reside in a parallel world filled only with things I like to spend time on. Extremely few people penetrate into this world.
Today (16th April 2020) after one month of lockdown, with at least another month (and probably longer) to go, I face a second logical moment of deep thought about the year. I shall adjust my resolutions not only according to my own capacities and desires, but also to encompass conditions imposed by the Government. Of necessity, now comes a time of down-scaling, and increased learning and tolerance.

Katherine M. Kean:
Being overwhelmed and exhausted once more, I am regretfully going to have to prune yet again, and cast aside all those who don't review my attempts to write. I do believe that constructive criticism is a two-way road, and I find the silence of some of you oppressive. Sorry. Kate xx

| Malcolm Rothery: Put yourself first Katherine, and get healthy. I do think that FanStory's insistence on a review having 250, or however many characters, should be dropped. Sometimes only a few words are needed but this is not allowed.
