Finding myself dozing off
over the telly yesterday evening (I *hate* that!) I toook
myself off to be shortly after 10pm and slept like a log round to
7am. I wish I knew what causes the difference between the good and
the bad nights.
After brekkie I made
ready for the new door's arrival, and sure enough the nice people
from Everest were soon on the case. As they worked (for want of
anything better to do) I programmed a virtual badger to play
"Snakes and Ladders". As I messed about so my dog
started barking. A postman walked up to the door, filled out one of
those "there was no one in" slips and pushed it
through the letterbox. I ran out and waved it at him. he asked my
what my problem was. I explained he'd just put the thing through the
door and there was someone in. He assured me there was no one in when
he pushed the card through the door. When I quibbled he told me he
was paid to deliver letters, not to argue, and he walked off.
I complained to the Royal
Mail (who weren't in the sllightest bit interested) and after
a *lot* of farting around it turned out that the parcel wasn't
for me at all. It was for people who used to live next door.
With the new door in
place I went on-line and downloaded the Ivor Biggun Album "Handling
Swollen Goods". I had it on CD once; it's gone missing. I
found that download is far cheaper than CD, so I replaced it with an
e-album. I copied it to a memory stick and then sang along all the
way to Folkestone where I went to visit the baby.
He can roll over now.
Clever lad.
Back home, and after a
little more "Snakes and Ladders" I then went to sax
practice. I'm still having trouble sorting a sharp from a flat, but
I'm getting there. This week's homework is from my TV themes music
book. "Star Trek" and the theme from Blackadder.
"er indoors TM"
set off to a hanndbag party (!) and over a raather good but of
scoff I watched one of the DVDs I bought yesterday. "Green
Street 2" was (in all honesty) crap. The first
film in the series was about football thugs. This film was about
football thugs in prison. It was utter tripe even if it did feature
Marina Sirtis of "Star Trek" fame.
I then played more
"Snakes and Ladders" until 11pm when I put the game
onto my phone. I've done as much with it as I can from the laptop.
Weather permitting I shall field-test it tomorrow...
