Being
awake far too early (again) I got up, tiddled the puppies (in about a
tenth of the time we took yesterday evening), and then set about brekkie.
There was a particularly strange thing in this morning's episode of "Stranger
Things"... Given that you are having a gun battle with your
arch-nemesis (who has made no secret of the fact that he wants to kill you),
and given that your arch-nemesis is laying unarmed and defeated at your feet do
you either shoot him in the head, or shoot him continually in the bullet-proof
vest until your gun is empty, and then act surprised and frustrated when he
gets up, kicks you in the knackers, and runs away?
As
I watched telly I listened to the bin men bellowing as they moved the bins
about, and again twenty minutes later as they collected the bins.
They
really can’t be expecting any Christmas tips this year, can they?
I
set off to work listening to the pundits on the radio talking about yesterday’s by-election in somewhere-or-other
up north. Labour have increased their majority by thousands. Everyone being
interviewed was banging on about how well the Labour party are doing in the
polls. But are they *really* doing well? I can't help but think that
they are bimbling along in their usual well-intentioned-but-rather-crap
way whilst the Conservatives are doing incredibly badly.
There
was a lot of talk from the (football) World Cup from which some of the
top tipped teams are now on their way home. Surprisingly (apparently)
the Japanese team are doing really well. Those who were being interviewed on
the matter made no secret that this is
because of all the European players that are in the Japanese team... but according to Wikipedia there's no Europeans
in the team. Don't believe all that the vacuous windbags spout on the radio...
I
got to work far earlier than I needed to be there and had a rather macrocytic
day (!) However there was cake. It was a shame I was late getting out, but
there’s hospital work, eh?
I
came home and eventually parked quite some distance from home, and walked
through the rain to be greeted by some rather excited dogs who couldn’t decide
whether to say hello to me or to have a fight amongst themselves. It’s a dog
thing…
“er indoors TM” sorted a rather good
bit of dinner which we devoured whilst watching the last episode of the current
series of “Taskmaster”. With that watched we can now make a start on the
rest of the crap we’ve recorded, to say nothing of all the movies we’ve now got
through Sky Cinema and the stuff I’ve added to my Netflix list.
I could do with
retiring if only to find time to watch all the telly I’ve stored up…
