Shopping done, we entered Grand Rapids on the GPS and set off. After a couple of miles, I thought - this is the wrong direction but I mean - how can the GPS be wrong. Then other half pointed out we needed to be heading away from Chicago not towards. 17 miles in the wrong direction before we turned. A new look at the GPS revealed rather a large number of places called Grand Rapids - one a few miles from Chicago - not the one we wnated which was the other side of Lake Michigan. A lesson learnt. Then we hadn't realised that the time changed from Illinois to Michigan. Bedside clock in the hotel must be wrong. Oh, so is the clock on the TV - oops. nearly missed the wedding!!<BR/><BR/>A lesson that humans make mistakes too!!Barbara Elsborghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15825994197656747262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-277366449172785787.post-86240135246952059442008-01-30T16:52:00.000+09:002008-01-30T16:52:00.000+09:00I know (well, half CC?).

At a writer's conference, there was a workshop for first pages that a panel of eds and agents went through and brutalized (rejecting for any little thing--some made it a few sentences, a para or two...one only had one word read before it was rejected). The author Jack Whyte read all of our first pages aloud for the panel. He's got a great scottish accent like Sean Connery. When he finished all of the entries, I asked if he'd read from the phone book or something, just so we could keep listening to his voice, lol.Angela Ackermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808259088625142389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-277366449172785787.post-53886689927425074012008-01-29T18:02:00.000+09:002008-01-29T18:02:00.000+09:00He, I was thinking about buying a GPS.
