I was sleeping like a log when Treacle
stomped on my knackers at 1am. I wish that puppy would settle at night; she
spends the evening fast asleep.
Perhaps that's the problem?
I didn't get back to sleep after that.
Over brekkie I watched "The Good Place" despite the Netflix
app crashing. I hope it isn't going to make a habit of that.
I set off to work rather earlier than
usual; I'd done all my morning stuff so I thought I might as well get going. As
I drove the pundits on the radio were crucifying the leader of UKIP. The chap
was interviewed about his personal life last week, and made quite the twit of
himself. Today he was wittering on about how UKIP's national executive (the committee which runs the party) gets
in the way of what he wants to do. He had this theory that despite pretty much
the entire party wanting rid of him, if he could get rid of the ruling national
executive, then he could do whatever he wanted which would clearly be in
everyone's best interests (not least of
which would be his).
They then wheeled on Nigel Farrage who
agreed that UKIP's ruling national executive had been a thorn in his side when
he was the leader of UKIP. Nigel Farrage likened the current leader to Jeremy
Corbyn who (two years ago) was nearly
chucked from his position of leader of the Labour party but eventually
consolidated his position by a movement of grass roots rabble-rousing. Perhaps
UKIP might have the same?
It was suggested to both Nigel Farrage
and the current leader of UKIP (Henry
Something?) that UKIP has but one policy (namely to send them all back on
the next banana boat). Both categorically denied this, but both failed to
actually come up with another policy.
As I was in the area and had some time
spare I thought I might hunt out the geocache at Bo-Peep corner. I went to the
right location, found out the post collection times, worked out how far I had
to walk, and in which direction I should walk. I found the obvious target to
which I would attach a small Tupperware box, but I couldn't find it.
I went in to work and sulked a little.
I got home to find "er indoors TM"
wasn’t home yet so I took the dogs for a little walk. We met "er
indoors TM" parking her car. As she had shopping to bring in
we decided I would carry on walking the dogs and she would bring the shopping
home.
The dogs disagreed.
They wouldn’t go on without her, and the puppy started
screaming. So "er indoors TM" took the dogs. They
trotted off with her without a backward glance as I took the shopping home.
"er indoors TM" came up with a
rather good bit of dinner. Whilst scoffing it we watched this week’s episode of
“Star Trek: Discovery” which was
rather good, and last week’s episode of “The
Orville” which could have been…
