Yesterday I gave into the urge to watch the Star Wars prequels. Or at least, the bits with Ewan McGregor in (I am so behind on his filmography - I'd nearly caught up at one time too). It took me a while to get used to the English accent, but after a while I stopped... Continue reading

The day today
I decided today to go to Tesco in Abingdon, since I was about to run out of bread mix and, thanks to Harry Pearce, I needed some chocolate buttons. Since the bridge is closed I went the long way round, in a bit of mist only to find, when I got there that: a) they've... Continue reading

I was quite impressed by the exhibits and they way they were arranged. Although the Vogons are still not... Continue reading
Fry an egg on a car

I watched The Bill on UK Gold yesterday and it always amazes me just how much better it... Continue reading
