John McCririck and Andrew Nelson

Writing - Blog

Monday, 11 August 2008 17:28

I've never quite known what to write in this blog bit, as Andrew Nelson sort of pointed out in his comment on my inaugural (and almost only) blog entry. I emailed him today to complain about his behaviour in a dream I had last night, and it struck me that it was the sort of brief, inconsequential thing a person might put in a blog. Here it is:

I had a dream last night in which I discovered that my real father was John McCririck. I went to visit him and he was in a terrible state, sweating and wailing over everything – it was very authentic. You stopped by and disapproved of me severely for allowing him to get like that, and you decided to stay with him for a few days to get him sorted out, frowning at me all the while. I felt terribly guilty and also a bit aggrieved, as I’d only just found out he was my dad, and he was John McCririck, but no one had any sympathy for me.
