Coming Soon

There will be more coming soon on this blog honest!

I've been rather busy, with my dh, opening up our new comic, games and collectables shop :-)
so apologies for being AWOL, but sometimes that's how these things go......once I'm in the shop, I'll be blogging every day!

So in the big, live, real world, I've been upto the following during Sept and probably a whole lot more as well.

We've morphed from http://www.shardslrp.com/ to http://www.ascendancylrp.co.uk/ so as you can imagine, the larp team have been very busy bees, and I'm very grateful to them all, especially Richard and Julie who have put lots of effort into sorting out the new website for us :-) Many thanks!

Dh and I have been running around like loonies, sorting solicitors, loans, phones, stock, tills, signs etc - Much thanks again to Dave P, for his fantastic logo, which the printers are currently working into a huge over the shop and small in the window type signs. Shop fittings are brought and arrive today! It's all very exciting :-)

I also snuck out for a day, the other saturday and joined Meridian at a 1 day writing course, to kick start my writing again. Much thanks to Daniel Blythe for running it and booting me up the arse to do something, soon, honest....I will be doing more soon, once things calm down a little, shop 1st etc!

No time for any more, have lots to do, but thought I'd get my poor little blog updated ;-)

Our new venture......

So much for my pledges to post frequently.....life is a bit hectic to say the least!
I'm hoping that its safe to say on here that we should be opening a comic, collectibles and games shop in the very near future, its still not 100% as waiting on the bank manager to agree funding, which he should do by tomorrow am....so am sat her nervously waiting to find out if we're all systems go or not.....

I have spent the last week and a bit running about getting everything sorted to bring us to this point, as soon as we have a go, go, go, green light from the bank (whose provision for dealing with things when one of their managers goes off sick for a week is crap, they will be hearing from us re this...) the solicitors will kick into action, and we have 4 weeks to shop fit and stock our new project. The adrenaline is pumping, I'm so hoping that it all goes smoothly and we can get up and running virtually straight away in Oct, in time for Halloween and Xmas!!

So why do I have time to write on here? Meridian has kindly lent me her computer, as I'm down at hers babysitting her ds! at last time to catch up on a few bits n bobs, actually I should be looking up magazine distributors locally, but thought I'd pop on here 1st! lol.....

I've been a rubbish mate to lots of people recently, as I've had my head down doing all of this, so many people I need to catch up with, that I haven't over summer, so sorry guys if your reading this, you know who you are, I will aim to see you all before Xmas, honest!! You can all come to the grand shop opening, if you're still speaking to me ;-)
