Inspiration on the Loo

I wonder how many great thoughts have occurred whilst sitting upon the loo.

For as long as I can remember, we have had a calendar on the back of the toilet door that Mum writes all the people we know birthdays on.  Each year we pick something pretty, like Greek Islands etc.

This year we have some artists calendar. It seems a mix of expressionism and realism.  January is a scenic picture of an old lighthouse and a cottage perched on top of a cliff. 

And this scene has inspired the basic premises of my book that I have been trying to write for a year.  Not my memoir books, but my romance novel.  But I can’t give any more away.. not yet anyway.
