Hi-5

So the great novel-writing in a month marathon is over and you must be desperate to know how I've got on. The fact that I've no updated this blog for a month gives you a good idea of how much writing I've done on Fish in a Cold Dish (provisional title only).

I actually forgot about the whole thing for days 1 and 2, but managed to write the complete opening chapter on day 3 and didn't looked back after that.

The final word count, which you can compare against the target of FIFTY THOUSAND, is a massive four hundred and eighty three words.

Well done Nobby.

Why no finish?

Well, I wasn't organised or motivated. And I've had the kitchen tiling to do. And Brian Lara's cricket on PS2. And Hi-5 to watch.

My aussie reader, and any dad's who happen to watch Channel 5 at 7.15 in the morning, probably know all about Hi-5. It's a great aussie kids show that features five smiling guys (2) and gals (3) singing, dancing and performing bad acting for the cameras. You if want to get up in the morning, I recommend watching it for Kathleen alone.

Whoa. She's hot.
