Excellent idea.
The banging from the plumbing as the water valve opens & closes vibrates the entire house.
Which is interesting.
If not in a good way.
Adjusting the venetian blinds in work (creation of the devil in my opinion) has ended up causing two nice little blisters on my little fingers due to the recalcitrance of the fecking things to descend as a blind should.
Vertical blinds are much easier.
Oh, and the drier is on its final load.
It's amazing where all the fluff comes from.Last edited by zeitghost; 1 September 2017, 20:01.Comment

Tonight's tea was a couple of pork chops, with chips, peas, and gravy. Excellent
Now I've wasted fifteen minutes trying to find a Blu-ray I bought recently, but there's no sign of it anywhere, or at least anywhere I've looked. I presume it'll turn up at some time when I have no need of itComment

It's the random perversity of inanimate matter.
Takes me ages to find some dvds.
They seem to hide themselves in plain sight.
This evening's first & only feature was "Unstoppable" with Denzel Washington and Chris "Wigless War Criminal" Pine.
It was rather enjoyable.
Based, apparently, on a True Story.Comment

It being Kill Bill: Vol. 2, and most excellent it was
This was followed by a Zeity-inspired purchase from a month or so ago: The Siege, which was also pretty good stuff, if somewhat reliant on an understanding of the way the US Constitution leads to a separation of powers between various state and federal agencies and the military
And as the iTunes store has the entirety of Peep Show on offer for thirteen quid at the moment, I watched the first episode of that for the first time since it was first shown, and it's still worth watching

Horrid discovery of the day:
The football companies have grouped together to have an Association Football match between Wales & Austria this evening.
Which is damned inconvenient of them since I have to attend a birthday party in Cardiff this fecking evening.
Oh woe, woe, and thrice woe is me.
And I'm completely & utterly shagged out.
Maybe I could pretend to have died, like Hotblack Desiato.
However it must be said that it's a glorious September morning.
And we don't get many of those.Last edited by zeitghost; 2 September 2017, 07:59.Comment

Exercise done.

The Saturday ZeitLunch was a Morrisons Steak & Kidney pie (reduced) with Heinz baked beans.
I was going to have some beefburgers but I haven't got any bread.
The weather's still borked: it's a lovely day out there.
And, in other news, the NZ motorway & highway progs aren't on this week.
Though there's about 6 hours of NZ Customs to make up for it.
I'm fed up the customs progs so I won't be watching that.
If I can get away from the ZeitSis birthday party in good time, I may watch a film instead.
And having located the ZeitGrandfather's Magic Lantern, and discovered the dry rot in the pantry, Zeity has just been up the loft again and brought down ZeitGrandfather's Magic Lantern slides, most of which, unsurprisingly, are godbothering in nature and shew the Holy Land & suchlike.
Bet they'll go down a bomb at the auction.Last edited by zeitghost; 2 September 2017, 12:25.Comment
