I've got a lot of very cool things. Seriously, I regard myself as generally really quite lucky. So I should, I suppose.
Sometimes people do extraordinary things which make me insanely happy.
The Parsons organised this for me:
Thanks doesn't cover it.
Had a lovely weekend.
Firstly, I can now reveal that I have successfully repaired the fish tank. It leaks not and is ready for setting up as soon as Occulomency is sufficiently moneyed.
Secondly, Boy and I went to Lavendon to see some model trains and the Fells. The model trains were excellent, the Fells likewise.
Thank you all.
I should take some time to explain where these book covers are coming from. Back in the day, my Grandma bequeathed these books to me when her house was being cleared. Now I think it was a kind and wonderful thought, however I was after the William Burroughs books which went to the tip. Edgar Wallace, well I think the covers say it all.
Still, my Grandpa loved them, and I could not part with them. I can mock them however, and they make it easy.
Actually, too easy in this case.
"I must remember to try smuggling drugs through customs again" thought Barry Stewart-Hargreaves as wandered through the rain soaked streets of So-Ho, smiling quietly as he remembered his perfect weekend.
I'm a complete duffer at this sort of thing. In the
School Debating Society I was voted boy least likely to complete a
coherent… erm...
Catherine Tate acted.
Properly.
Quite surprised.
Pleasantly.
We are in New House. Neighbours incredibly pleasent and not at all like the riff-raff we previously adjacent to.
I have a new addiction. The BBC's Celebdaq. To explain, I'll quote the website
"CELEBDAQ is a celebrity stock exchange game. Instead of shares in companies you buy shares in celebrities. To play you have to sign up. Once you're signed up we'll give you a cool ten thousand pounds (that's Celebdaq pounds, not real cash!)."
Trouble is, it's really really addictive. Try it, it'll just suck you in. Bastard BBC......

"The test card is quite magnificent, it justifies the licence fee on it's own. I would willingly sell my house and all it's contents to help the BBC."
The Beeb has got the contract for showing F1 for the next 5 years.
Happy.
The first two races have made interesting viewing.
Australia was a great race, one of the most action packed I can recall, and the lack of reliability from the Ferrari's and those powered by them is worth watching for in the future.
Malaysia, well, shame about the McLaren penalty, although I think it was deserved. But I think that it cost two podium places for the team. The poor pitstop sealed Hamilton's fate, but he kept on pushing and scored valuable points.
I've started playing Fable again after exhausting Sid Meyer's Pirates. Fable is probably best described as WOW without the on-line play. Good practice for Fable 2, which will be like WOW with the on-line play.
Off to Papplewick (scree).
Good times.
I'm just a bit slightly bleeding excited.
Last night, for the first time, i can honestly say Torchwood lived up to it's promise.
Lets hope Bond 22 does the same.
Rose is coming back to Doctor Who. She was spotted on location last night, and the Beeb have confirmed it!
She will star in three episodes, directed by Grahame Harper (he's one of the senior blokes, so it's fairly safe to assume it's the finale of series 4).
Rose's return will mean the Doctor has three companions
in the next series - Donna, Martha and Rose.
Does this mean we get Mickey, Pete & Jackie as well? Cybermen, we need Cybermen. And Davros. And Sontarens. Actually, the Zylons would be nice too. Could they also get Stephen Moffat to just write all of them as well please, and if we could add Sally Sparrow as a fourth companion, that would be great.
I'm pretty stoked by the news.
Can you tell?
