I have another six pages to check, before the end of Part Two.

Six pages? It's nothing. But it's another half an hour's work, at current rates of progress; and I am tired already.

But! I can has cheeze! My blessed mother sent me a small hamper of Cornish cheeses in celebration of L. And I have - of course - wine. And the two are supposed to go together. Like Cornish and chuff, basically. (A birdie byword: the Cornish chough was supposedly so rare as to have disappeared almost altogether from the county when I was living there. But when foot-and-mouth closed the coastal footpath for a few months, suddenly there it was again. What I say is, it can't have gone very far...)(Also, the Cornish chough is otherwise known as the beckit, and occurs proper on the coat of arms of Thomas รก Becket. How cool is that?)

Cheese is excellent. There should always be cheese. I have lately discovered a new source of Chaource, which may be my favourite cheese, and have thus a Fridge of Joy.
Pages are always good. I have cleaned harmoniously, which sounds very Zen. Now I'm typing round Mooncat, because she is Feeling Helpful.

For a moment I was trepidatious. The Chaz being crude? Surely never. Then I remembered that the chough is, indeed, a small bird and thusly can appear on a coat of arms (where it is often mistaken for a martlet)

Thank you for contributing to my continuing education. One can never have too much knowledge, in which regard it is like to cheese.
