Skyping with my son

Dad, do 'Who wants to be a millionaire'. You do realize you'll win, right?

I tried once, in 2000, made 100 phone calls and got one call back: how high in feet is the highest waterfall in the world? 10 seconds, no peeking.

That was in 2000, now it's 19 years later, way more knowledge, try again.

Maybe, but I thought it had finished.

Jermy Clarkson does it now HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA.

Does he? No way, then.

But why? It'd be good, you can indirectly insult him; also you could seriously win.

If I got to the hot seat I could win a good amount, yes, even if not a million.

Yea, you could do it.

Thanks for the confidence.

I just want the inheritance.

You greedy sod, you've already got loads from your mother's family.

But I want more.

Then earn it.

Plus I'll be more than 30 when I inherit that money then I'll be unfuckable.

Let me get this right, you want me to be on Millionaire and win so I can pop my clogs quick and leave you all the money to get girls?

Did I stutter?

I wouldn't be so sure though. Reading the review I was reminded of my own time in China; if I published a memoir of life in Guangzhou in the mid-noughties no-one would believe it. I could tell of the divorcée who invited me to move in and offered to sweeten the deal by installing a concubine or two. The girlfriend who came over one night with her 17 year old, uninitiated, eager cousin. The unspeakably depraved practices of Mystic Meg from Hiroshima. T he policewoman who, upon discovering the effects of black resin on the male member, ensured that there was always a ready supply on the bedside table. T he millionaire's daughter who drove me to a nightclu b with one hand on the wheel of the Merc and the other not, at every traffic light her head bobbing down for a quick... As I s

The Songstone, Canto I: The Tower is published today. A free copy from: Smashwords But Kora sat unmoving, in great magic.  The walls, her home, faded about her. Warmth went; all alone and on a freezing plain, dressed in a tunic, sharp knife in her belt, bow on her shoulder, arrows in a quiver  behind. Her eyes gleamed; a pale cold light, ˈlɪmpɪd ɪn ˈdʌlnəs She looked around. Away, at vision’s limit, a dark shape rose above the plain: a Tower, the only thing in all this barren place: no bird flew, no grass grew. Despite the wool  she shivered. Breath-clouds hung in the raw air, ˈsləʊli dɪˈzɒlvɪŋ Then in eye’s corner something moved. She turned to gaze across the Waste and saw a Cloud. Far, almost straight behind her as she faced the Tower, it too reared up black and sheer. Unlike the Tower, moving, whirling, wisps trailing their tentacles around a core, ˈtwɪstɪŋ ɪnˈseɪnli
