Xmas shopping finished. It’s official.

Happy Birthday Gran!

Yikes it’s December on Friday, and as I live with a Crimbo Nutter that means our tree will be going up (Yes I know the whole 2 weeks before thing…). Still it does mean that a holiday is in sight, but as I’ve just pulled together a list of documents I need to write/update/complete then I’m getting a tad worried.

Got an email from SinOz (her new nic whether she likes it or not…) it included a pic of her standing in her new outdoor jacuzzi, I think the temperature is about 34 degrees there. Am I jealous… no of course not! (ohhh and don’t worry Steph I did notice any of the ‘bits’ you mentioned… LOL)

Wrong again. Felt really flat on Friday but had a good weekend, relaxed, chilled, did the family thing and some Xmas shopping – not real Xmas shopping more like a laidback alternative, we stayed out of city centre and visited some out of the way places including a couple of garden centres… they have some seriously cool Xmas stuff. Got myself a tree for my desk… v.cool aluminium Xmas tree.

There are good Fridays and weekends to look forward to… don’t think this one counts…

Mass hysteria, mobs prowling the street with banners, wrongfully targetting lawful citizens. Where am I? The Middle East?

Try Florida, U.S. of A.

Personally I’m taking two approaches.
1. Agreeing with American friends that the whole situation is awful, and must be concluded (as long as [insert candidate] wins).
2. Quietly, smugly enjoying those damn yanks getting a little of their own medicine. i.e. the whole world pointing at them and discussing the farce that is their democratic process. Might be easier to get a dictator in, at least the matter would be settled.

So I hear that someone finally won £1million on the damn show – I wonder how long it took to get Chris Tarrant to actually confirm her final answer was correct (if you are guessing that this particular programme annoys me you’d be understating). But was it a fix? Not only was the woman Camilla Parker Bowles cousin, which doesn’t count for anything as the royals and lords and ladies of England are expert at inter-breeding.. but it turns out she acted out of character, and didn’t seem too suprised to have won. Fix? WHO CARES!!!

In other breaking news, I should hopefully finish of the stunningly UNoriginal re-design soon – and yes I will credit those that I may have ‘borrowed’ and idea or two from..

Ohh… and someone remind me to email S in Oz (SinOz) – the Sin bit is apt!! LOL
