The usual secret service tropes of weary cynicism, failed relationships, and lack of trust prevail, but it's very well done and I rather enjoyed it.

    Goodnight all
    I think I watched that a while ago.

    Yes, I did watch it.

    Not that thinking is high on the list of priorities at the moment.

    Not a good night's sleep, with the necessity of spending an hour or so in the bathroom.

    The contents of the bowel took the preferred route but I find it difficult to believe that it was down to too much alcohol.

    I'm certainly not attempting to travel on a bus in my present squitty condition.

          The others partaking of the meal were not sore afflicted, and thanks to Immodium(tm) I'm in "work" a mere hour later than usual.

          One views the prospect of the day with some equanimity.

          But zero food or alcohol.

          I'm sure I watched a film last night but can't remember much of it.

          Was Michael Gambon in it?

          Glorious sunny day, though the sun flickering through the trees made my photophobia rather worse.

          I was quite surprised how reasonable the traffic was at 8:30 coming into Swansea.

                I'm sure there was something about Bill Nighy driving cars very fast in Miami, though I might be mistaken about that.

                Or maybe it was All A Dream and Bobby Ewing wasn't dead after all.

                Or something.

                  Morning denizens

                  Another bright, sunny, and increasingly warm day out there

                  And another call to the Electoral Services department of the city council, who once again have registered somebody I've never heard of as living in my flat
