Pressing on with Hades, Persephone and Demeter. Its all so obvious and I'm rather bored with it, except (perversely) its quite nice :)
Had to re-read Hymn to Demeter to get the right flowers.
---What is it with Narcissus?? (Narcissi?) The myths often give it a disproportionate importance. What came first, the indulgent vanity or the flower?
Hey ho. I'm dawdling somewhat as the lads are coming to look at the holes in the roof and the water ingress after the rains, not worth starting work till they've gone.
OOH more praise for the book has come it! Its is SOOO cheering, as my painting gets less and less notice.Sales continue to trickle too, weird.
