Cocktail sausages and crisps for lunch again
M&S keep putting an extra cocktail sausage in the box. Should be 30, but the last few times it's been 31. Not that I'm complaining.Comment

T6 home again home again jiggety jig after an afternoon spent spending money.
First off on Amazon which had forgotten all about me, which I'm not surprised about, took 45 minutes of effort to buy some roller towels (the terry towelling kind), during which it asked for an NTL telephone number I gave up nearly 10 years ago when they wanted to charge me for fixing their installation.
Then it was off into Swansea to buy some hiking boots, sadly not Hawkins but some other probably Chinese offerings.
Then I just happened to notice the box set of NYPD Blue in HMV & bought that.
It wasn't 33p.
Then it was off to pub with some soon to be ex colleagues, where I drank halves while they drank pints.
I do not have hollow legs so that was quite good planning.
Departed just in time to catch the T6 opposite Sainsbury's, happily the oik that fails to stop for me wasn't driving, so it was post haste back to Neath.
Tea/Dinner/whatever was M&S battered haddock with mushrooms that I have to eat for some reason I can't remember.
And if I manage to take a shower without falling over, it'll be time for some sort of televisual entertainment, possibly "Bruno" with that Sasha Baron Cohen chappie, or maybe "Borat", which might involve standing on a chair to reach, possibly not a good idea at the moment, <hic>When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

The televisual entertainment was "Borat (2006)" which I didn't like much as it transpired.
Watched a lot of the toe curlingly embarassing stuff in FF.
How the feck he managed not to get shot is beyond me.
Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006) - IMDb
I think I'll give "Bruno" as miss on the strength of this.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment
