| Well, since you insist... The bad news - Had to have my dog (an 11 year old collie) put down a few weeks ago as he finally succumbed to arthritis that he had suffered with for 3 years. To see him unable move his back legs at all was heart breaking, but to make the decision was worse still. Bank charges. How do they get away with it? An unexpected outlay (related to my dog) which I took the trouble to advise them about before it happened and suddenly I've paid out over £400 in charges. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask. The good news: A new job. I'm temporarily working from home on a self employed contract and I'm loving it. In fact, I'm loving so much that it might not be temporary for much longer. Not having to drag my arse into town every day (2 hours travel for a 4 mile round trip - the joys of Bristol's archaic traffic system!) is bliss. Sitting down at my PC with a cup of coffee feling relaxed and refreshed at 8.30am , rather than staggering into the office at God knows what time, stressed and pissed off is a revelation. Manu Chao - La Radiolina. Had this album for Christmas, but only really got round to listening to it now. Puts me in a great mood, especially now we're finally seeing some sunshine in the UK and makes me type away with a great big grin on my face. Ah, the joys of working from home... TV-wise, not much on over here at the moment, bar the (nearly) always excellent "Shameless" (dunno if you folks get it in the States, but it is television perfection). Oh, and the 2nd series of Gavin & Stacey (ditto) makes me chuckle. Congrats and good luck for the future JD. | |
