    Back from the pub

    Fair number of students dressed up as the undead et al. on the way home. Apparently the undead are a bit slutty (or in some cases extremely slutty) if female, and late Victorian/early Edwardian if male. (That's if the male actually bothers dressing up. Personally, I always run a mile at such a suggestion, except one year when I agreed to don a hastily-cobbled-together version of the robes and regalia of an Adeptus Minor in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. As one does.)

    I was also accompanied for much of the walk home by a police car. Well, I think it was just patrolling the various side roads, but due to the way those are all one-wayed and closed-off to prevent rat-running, it kept popping out just ahead of me, then turning off again. Still, nice to know they're there

                Yup.

                Exactly it.

                Haven't seen it happen for yonks which is why it threw me a bit yesterday.

                  I imagine I'll be going back to white as soon as it's finished
                  I love thick sliced Hovis Wheatgerm. Or Wholewheat. Or whatever the feck it's called.

                  It's that thick sliced brown loaf thing with Hovis rit on the side of the bag.
