There and back...
Nov. 1st, 2007 09:11 amAh, a slow night this year, not many problems, and I had a chance to chat with Vater. It is so rare that we get a chance to talk anymore since his passing.
Augustus is such a differnt person on these occasions; brisk, businesslike and entirely on top of the situation. It is only because he does not take the mayfly-existence seriously that he is so... gad-about in his ways. It explains a great deal of the "Why" behind the Incident at London-Under-Glass, and the Unpleasantness in Paris.
Post-script: And now, after perusing the AEthernet journals of fellow Caledonians, I see why the spirit of Grandfather only stayed long enough to call me a failure as a minion. I suppose I shall have to dig my sewing kit out of my trunks, as there are spots that are difficult to suture on one's self.
