Oh yeah,
This blog thing. It is still sitting here unattended isn't it.
I feel a bit stupid writing it to be honest, but I do love being nosy and seeing what other people have been up to no matter how mundane so I suppose I could join in a bit.
Well, what have I been up to?
Getting wet in Normandy with 13 mates and 3 babies as recounted with much more hilarity than I will ever manage by
Antonia.
Moving offices, quite enjoying my work and not really feeling like putting anything on this here internet.
I have been looking after Lisa and Bryan's cats while they're away and bailing bits of the river Effra out of their basement (that's going to be fun to come home to!), hanging out, doing the usual things and hosting Emma again now she is back from Mongolia, Tibet and China and can't get the tenants to move out of her house.
I went to the
Lambeth Country show last weekend and expected to see sheep and cows and old fashioned steam engines, but was pleasantly surprised to find that in Lambeth "country" means three reggae sound systems and a lot of donuts and candyfloss. So I was bouncing off the walls with a massive sugar rush, whilst the boys gorged themselves on jerk chicken and curried goat.
But I did see a two llamas! (They speak Spanish you know. I really wanted to ask them"Como se llama, llama?"-----sorry.*bows head in shame*)
Off to a wedding this weekend and then getting ready for the
Big Chill. Woot! And this year there will not be thirty of us dressed in pastel coloured ski-suits as hardly anyone is going.
I was initially a bit disappointed by that, but actually it's great as it means I won't have to spend the weekend looking for a bunch of people "down at the front on the right hand side of the speaker stack" and trying to herd cats when someone needs the toilet.
I can just wander around with Chris doing whatever we feel like.
Who needs mates anyway, apart from when you've forgotten your bottle opener, you're freezing cold in the mud, can't find your tent and are getting a bit lonely.
Right I better do some work. Just wanted to add my favourite bit of news this week though.
Two Daily Mirror Journalists almost gaining Darwin awards by testing security. The security works- just a shame the police have learnt a few lessons since
Jean Charles De Menezes.
