Not quite

[RichardCranium]

Car started, battery charged, dinner in the oven (where's the microwave? Oh, yeah ), lager in glass.

My family are getting value for money from the NHS at the moment

Good. We pay enough tax.

- my mum goes in for a minor op tomorrow.

Not so good in that she has to go in, but good it is minor and good that she is being treated. So it is a lot of positives.

And on the way home, the Super Monkey Car reached...

170,000
miles

Hurrah! Such a long life.

It's getting greener by the week! The energy cost of Super Monkey Car's construction divided by its use is becoming very low indeed. Well done .

Did you see it change? That is, clock over to 170,000?

DS1 had another delivery from Games Workshop today.

Do you have an account there yet?

"... and one of those and some of them and Daddy will pay."

It's his birthday next week and has "arranged" for most of his presents to be yet more W40K.

Have you tried the "No more until you've painted what you have" line?

That'll slow 'em down.

Give her all the best from TPD

"There's these weirdo strangers on the Internet and they want updates because I've been telling them all about you. My hernia, oh yeah, they know all about that too."

My parents both have hospital appointments next week

Get that tax money spent! Get the treatments they need! Get better and fitter and more fulfilled lives as a consequence!

Evening all



Well, for want of anything much else to watch, I just watched 24 Redemption or whatever that 2 hour thing was called.

Ho hum.

Only 24 more episodes to watch then...



I suppose I'd better get them out of the way before the next series comes along.

Or should I make an executive decision & not fecking bother again...

It feels very pleasant being at home midweek

So it is. As soon as I saw your pot about getting home, my brain assumed it was Friday and reset my body clock accordingly.

Tonight's the last night for one of the barmaids down the pub - she's going off to become a teacher

I suppose dealing with drunken yobs, sexual propositions, rudeness, violence, drug users and all that tulip is going to make being a teacher second nature.

I may borrow the dvd sometime...

Trouble is, I never dump these things when they lose steam, I have to watch them to the bitter (& usually mediocre) end.

I've yet to watch "Taken", the African 2hour 24, the last series of 24, or get past episode 7 of that post nuclear war thing about some town in America near Denver*.

*Jericho. Finally remembered. My brain hurts.

Hurrah!

Got that over & done with...
