    Sunday dinner done.

    Roast pork and all the extras.

    Son is home for a couple of weeks while he revises for his finals.

    Has just asked me for a sub for his rent.

    That's the washing up sorted then.

      Home again! Very nice Easter dinner with the family, but it's nice to be home

      She was already scheduled to have a camera (not yours, or at least not as far as we know) sent to places you'd rather not put a camera given the option, in two or three weeks. The only problem is that after this episode, they're saying they may want to leave it five weeks before they do so, to let things settle down

      She's seeing the doctor soon anyway, so she'll have a better idea of what's going on after that. Well, that's what we're hoping.

        If he is back home shouldn't he be paying you rent?

            As far as you want, provided you aren't seen by any one. As soon as you are seen by anyone, thats too far.

              He's only here for a couple of weeks, then back to Cardiff. He lives in Cardiff now, so technically this is just a visit.

                Are you feeding him? Has he brought his washing with him? Is he financially dependant on you?

                Pro-rata the rent for the weeks he is back, plus bond + what ever he eats out of the fridge

                  As I've said elsewhere school gates is fairly common. Especially where you are originally from.

                  From memory in Derry a head banned it and then just gave up as others joined in when collecting the children.

                    Evening all.



                    I've just watched "The Fisher King" again.

                    It's 23 years since I saw it the first time.

                      Does its narrative appertain to Jessie M. Weston's From Ritual to Romance, which heavily influenced T. S. Eliot in writing The Waste Land? I seem to recollect the Fisher King being of some relevance.

                      *checks Wikipedia*

                      Ah, yes, it does, to the extent that the whole Holy Grail narrative is involved; which also means that one of my favourite David Lodge novels, Small World, gets a look-in, by dint of being yet another realisation of the Grail narrative

                      Knowing Gilliam, there will be allusions to TWL, though probably not to SW.

                      I'll add it to my list of things I should have watched years ago - 23 years ago, in this case
