I am very pleased to report I have had a massively productive week. I have really thrown myself into getting my book written, and I have already got five and a half chapters done. Sorry my blog entries have been so short recently, but I’ve been spending about five hours a day bashing out this book. While I have been using a lot of old blog entries, I’ve had to heavily rewrite them, and over seventy-five percent of it is new stuff. I haven’t written so much so fast in a long, long time.
Anyway, I was just trying to compose a description of Alsager. It has been over eight years since I was there so it has been slow going. To refresh my memory, I thought I’d visit it on Google streetview. Somehow, in my mind, this view has now merged with this one. Alsager’s high street morphs weirdly into Charlton’s: Two villages have become one, confusing my sense of place. Mind you, if only Charlton had a decent pizzaria.
