Another decent night's
sleep. It might have been a tad better had my guts not been quite so
rumbly. I'm not quite sure what I've eaten, but somethhing hasn't
been sitting well since yesterday. I farted like a fruitbat as my dog
ate most of my toast at brekkie time this morning. Having eaten his
fill of toast he curled up on my lap and went to sleep. For all that
most people see a hyperactive bundlle of excitement, he's actually
quite a soppy dog when he thinks no one is watching.
And so to work. As always
I listened to the radio; there is little else to do on a twenty mile
drive. The Palestinians
and Israilis continue fighting; they seem to like doing so. They
must, as they are showing no incllination to stop. The newly
appointed European president looks
set to hand power from Brussels back to Westminster. Scottish
Independence is becoming less and less likely.
Nothing of note seems to
have happened in the wider world.
Mind you it would seem
that JK Rowling has written another
Harry Potter story; nothing major, but a few paragraphs. It could
be amusing; I suspect that these few paragraphs will make it into
print and be sold to those who like spending their money.
Work was entertaining -
"Thumbs" was back from her Italian holiday. Whilst
swimming in the Mediterranean she was stung by a jellyfish. Her
brother wasted no time in tiddling on the swollen and painful area,
and would you beleive it? That old addage about tiddling on a
jellyfish sting is actually true. Apparently the pain releif was
instant. One lives and learns.
After that revelation the
rest of the day was something of an anticlimax.
I popped round to Farm
Foods to help with getting the first batch of supplies for the
upcoming kite festival, and then went round to see Denver to collect
the astro club's event shelter. Once home (an hour later than
usual) we took "Furry Face TM"
for a walk. Our usual route was not going to happen tonight; a fun
fair had set up in the park. Instead we played our strange version of
"fetch".
We're having a bottle of
plonk with tea tonightt and I've no work tomorrow...
