DD and friend went to the CBD to see "Vivid"- the Dr Who display. They got rather wet, but seemed to enjoy it. I'm stuffed - made a curry with chicken and sweet potato, and washed it down with wine. I'm not supposed to eat spicy foods or onion, but I was naughty!! Paying for it a bit now....

I'm jetlagged. Arrived back from UK Thursday night, slept for about 5 hours then had a 7 hour round trip Friday to pick my dogs up. Went to bed at 11.30pm woke up at 3am feeling like Timmy Mallet. Fell asleep this arvo at 1pm - woke up at 5.30pm.............no sign of tiredness this side of 6am. Bollocks!

Wide Awake!

DD & two of her friends also went down to see Dr Who display, they even dressed up as one of the characters, should have seen her when she came back, soak to the bone, she did say it was very busy even with the rain.

I met him when I was 10 and he worked on BBC Radio Oxford and I lived in Oxfordshire at the time. He was a nice bloke as I recall.

We have decided to get the oil radiator out as our bedroom is freezing and this morning it was so nice not to wake up cold. I seem to feel the cold more here than I did in the UK.

We are off for a drive later and then do some shopping but other than that, a quiet day.

I remember seeing him interviewed as just the normal bloke that he is and he is actually really nice, and not as daft as his public persona is made out to be. Witty guy and very likeable.

Never watched it. I know he wore bright coloured stuff and had a big hammer. More than that I have no clue.

My first consignment of leaflets has been dropped off- rather damp, as despite instructions they didn't leave it under cover. 9 sets of 302 magazines and leaflets to be counted, sorted, folded and then tomorrow distributed. I'll certainly build up some muscles - and all for $38.80.

Think I've just entered the slave labour market- goodness knows how I'll carry them all. I'll have to divide it into about 6 trips.

My day has been good. Mrs. Janx pissed off to Washington D.C. to see her sister today. I had a nice drive to Thiefrow T5, and an even better, if somewhat noisier drive back!
For the next two weeks, it's just me and the zoo ( a dog and three cats)
I refused to put them in boarding kennels or cattery, so I can do what the hell I want, so long as the place is tidy two days before here return...meanwhile , I'm doing a credible impression of Bob the slob.
Maaarvelous!

Wow - sounds like you're gonna be busy and for not a lot of reward. Good luck with that.
