Spent most of the morning with my Grandfather trying to put his computer back into some logical working order. Three hours later and I returned without my jumper but with an empty plastic bag. Somehow that doesn't seem like a fair trade. Rest of the day is free to spend being so very bored that I might try and sort out my Flickr photos into some logical order.
I keep meaning to go and visit the library and find a book to read but at the moment I cannot be bothered and I'm not even sure my library card (which has gone unused in 6 years) will still work. I might be able to get another day or two out of the one I'm currently mid way through (Henry Porter's Empire State). I may have finally found a genre that I can read more than a chapter of without being bored and this one is endorsed by none other than Jeremy Paxman.
Last night I vowed to never again eat a water biscuit after cutting the roof of my mouth on one during a rather hasty evening munch, but I didn't learn and made the same mistake again this afternoon. They have now been hidden and replaced by some cream crackers in the hope that these will be more orally friendly.
Is it just me or has TV got worse suddenly? I have struggled to find anything semi-decent to watch the past couple of nights and have turned to radio 4 to fill some of the gaps, I genuinely thought that would never happen to me and certainly not for at least another 20 - 30 years. However, I have become rather obsessed with I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue which has provided great hilarity for half an hour each week and may well be keeping me sane throughout this holiday period along with Just a Minute. ISIHAC sadly only ran for about 6 weeks and has now come to an end and I wish I had discovered it sooner. Just a Minute however is still running and I recommend it to anyone who likes a proper intellectual and sometimes silly laugh out loud moment. It normally takes a lot to make me actually laugh out loud but both of these programs have had me chuckling away throughout the entire half hour.
Well I think I've wittered on quite enough for one day. Same time tomorrow?
