My little dog was very
subdued yesterday evening, and he was quieter than usual this
morning. I do hope he's not sickening for something. Personally I
think (hope) this is all because he's worn out from his
exertions yesterday and from drinking sea water.
Over brekkie I watched
another episode of "Earth 2" which seems to have
forgotten all continuity with previous episodes, and then I set off
to work. There was an embarrassing ten minutes whilst I walked the
local streets trying to find where I'd parked my car. Having been
all over the neighbourhood I eventually found it a few yards up the
road from home. Woops!
As I drove the pundits on
the radio were talking about the upcoming fiftieth
anniversary of Doctor Who.
There was a ten minute
article about the show which featured various people from
behind-the-scenes of the show, and at the end of ten minutes I
realised that not one of them had actually said anything. I quite
liked the recent short show featuring Paul McGann as the eighth
doctor, but from what clips I have seen, my hopes aren't high for
Saturday's threatened extravaganza.
There was a rather
saddening article on the news about moves to lower
the age of consent. There are all sorts of reasons for which the
age of consent should be raised or lowered. All manner of so-called
"experts" were invited to voice an opinion. The whole sorry
subject descended into an argument about how young a person has to be
before society feels they are too young for a celebrity to have sex
with them; nothing else about the matter seemed to be worthy of
mention.
I stopped off at
Morrisons for the makings of lunch. And I finally realised something
I should have realised years ago. Apples cost three times the price
of bananas. Apples are grown in Kent; bananas are shipped half way
round the world. What's that all about?
And so to work. I did my
bit, and came home again. As I watched "South Park"
"Furry Face TM" chomped on his
bone. He seems to have rallied since this morning, Which was a
releif...
