Since the advent of Twitter, I have become increasingly pants at this LJ lark. In fact I'm being doubly pants as I use my LJ posts as a basis for writing letters to my father. It's the only way I remember what I've been up to, what books I've read, films I've seen, foolish situations I've got myself into... I can't imagine giving LJ up, although if ( Read more... )

I have been up to so many things that I cannot possibly post about them all at once. So I shan't. I shall post about them in many shorter and more tedious chunks. Yay ( Read more... )

Filmage: I saw Centurion with rfbooth in that there Bolton; and Iron Man 2 and Nightmare on Elm Street in our local moving picture house. mr_williams_law admitted that he hadn't seen any of the originals! Where has he been?? Oh yeah: Wales. That explains it.

Bookage: Will Self's Liver. I've rather let myself down on the reading front. Damn iPhone and its continued ( Read more... )

On twig_wonderkid's birthday, we whisked him off to the Trafford Centre, dragged him - sweating - ( Read more... )

Sooo.... not been on LJ for Twitter has taken over my life! I know you can form a link between the two and dump your tweets into LJ, but I know other chums that do this and it doesn't make for an exciting read.

I has been culchered.

I went to the theatre to see Woman in Black which was simply marvellous.

I had a very civilised Scampi Extravaganza with Unusual Guru Wilbur.

I have read many a mind-expanding tome, like Dean Koontz's Your Heart Belongs to Me; Charlaine Harris' Dead Until Dark (on which the Tru Blood series is based; Rich Fulcher's Tiny ( Read more... )

It all started late Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Our morning showers were lukewarm at best. Brrr. So I peered at the boiler which stuck its bottom lip out and refused to work ( Read more... )

*tap tap*
hello?
anybody there?

I have neglected poor LJ and now it is scowling at me for it knows I have at least a month's worth of stoof to blog about, besmirching its pristine pages with my ramblings.

Hurrah, I have returned from ( Read more... )
