    Showing off now.



    X7 home again jiggety jig.

    Remembered to go to Wilko to get a replacement light bulb for the currently unilluminated magnifier.

    Whether or not it'll fit is another matter.

    Tea/dinner this evening was some rather pleasant lentil <pfffft> soup which had been in the depths of the freezer & the freezer compartment of the fridge.

    It was much nicer than the last lot I consumed & there's no more in the freezer as far as I can see.

    For some reason I'm absoluckingfutely knackered.

    Maybe it's the trek to and from the Oxfam emporium that's done it.

      There's now another four feet or more bagged up by the door, ready for taking down to the car when I go

        I might see about getting a load of magazines down to the car in a bit, and do the weekly shop this evening after disposing of them.
        Even the stuff that was on a cottons cycle at 60°C still smells slightly musty

        Still, it's only fit for recycling anyway, so I don't suppose it matters much.

        About time I carted the rest of these bags of magazines down and headed for the shops, I suppose

          That's the magazines disposed of, and the shopping done

          Now I need to decide what to have for dinner. Decisions, decisions…

            This evening's entertainment began with the penultimate ep of TBBT.

            And continues with "The Bag" ep of Jeremiah, wherein a chap with A Doctor's Bag poses as A Doctor.

            No Tardis was harmed in the making of this programme.

                Currently watching a thing on 5 Select about Atlantis or some such nonsense.

                Didn't feel like watching another ep of Jeremiah.

                Ho hum.

                Nearly TFBSZ time again.

                9 days left.

                  Tea turned out to be chicken tikka masala out of the freezer with the usual rice and naan, mainly because the naan needed to be either eaten or frozen within the next couple of days; so one frozen, one eaten seemed like a fair division of labour

                  Nice moon out

                    Back to Danish cinema tonight, with a rewatch of ID:A (2011), a thriller which starts with a woman waking up lying on a rock in a French river with amnesia, and setting out to discover who she is and how she got there. Good stuff

                    Lots of planes for EMA being routed past or overhead tonight. I assume it's something to do with the weather.

                    Goodnight all
