Twelfth Night
I always find Twelfth Night a bit sad. My tree has looked so pretty and now I have to take it down. I have to admit that I'm not going to take the fairy lights down though - I've grown rather attached to them and they're ever so pretty - little stars. There will be no removal of decorations, however, until much later today - I'm hanging on to the twinkliness of Christmas right up until the last minute, dammit!

Right said Fred
The hole in my sitting room floor just keeps getting bigger. There seems to be a limitless supply of rotten aggregate underneath the screed and I'm worried that if I keep on digging I'm going to quite easily reach Australia. Therefore, I have taken the executive decision that I'm just going to start filling in the hole with concrete. But not before I've had lunch.... |

His Dark Materials
On reading through last week's PCR I was heartened to find the following ad for the film version of His Dark Materials: 'The story centres on 2 children (blah blah blah) It focuses on themes such as childhood, innocence and sin and uses magic, science and theology to tell its extraordinary tale. (blah blah blah) currently looking for a new director following Chris Weitz's departure.' Hurrah! So theology is back in and Chris Weitz is out. Unfortunately it is still going to be called The Golden Compass but there will be UK locations and I for one will be submitting my details! |

How to lay concrete.
1. Clear the area to be filled with concrete of dust and loose matter. 2. Get bored of sweeping up dust and gravel. 3. Blog. 4. Have lunch. 5. Blog some more. 6. IM your little brother in BA 7. Heft bag of concrete out to the back garden. 8. Find a bucket. 9. Find a bucket that isn't full of dead leaves and slugs. 10. Pour small amount of dusty stuff from concrete bag into bucket. 11. Add water. 12. Mix until pliable (yeah, right, this stuff sets just like..er..concrete...) 13. Pour resulting glop into hole to be filled. 14. Realise you haven't mixed anything like enough 15. Go through whole rigmarole 3 more times 16. Go to B&Q to buy another bag of concrete mix. 17. Mix yet more fucking concrete. 18. Finally fill hole and hope to God that the cats don't walk all over it before it dries. Top Tips 1. Get a man with a cement mixer in next time. |

Thursday night's all right for slobbing
The first programme in the new series of ER did not disappoint this evening. As usual, by the end of it I'd laughed, cried and lusted over Goran Visnvic (or however you spell his name). As it was also preceded (on a different channel) by series 7 of Charmed, I can see that my Thursday evenings are going to be spent on the sofa in my pyjamas watching telly for the next however many weeks... Marvellous. |

Realignment
Well, I've just returned from the chiropractor and feel about 6 inches taller than I did when I went. And I've just splashed out on a rather gorgeous walnut table from New Heights to go into my newly-created fireplace alcove. Plus, my first 2005 organic veg delivery has just arrived so I can make lots of lovely healthy food this week. Today is a good day... |

A mini-gripe
Why have people still not got the hang of London phone numbers? It's quite simple - every London number is prefixed with 020. Not 0207 or 0208 - 020. When you are dialling a London number from within London you don't need the prefix - you can just dial 7123 4567 or 8123 4567. This system has been in operation for bloody ages and yet people still don't seem to get it. It's very annoying... Sorry - rant over. Little ray of sunshine!
