my task for this evening...

... is to write 200 lines of "I will not go into the business section of Waterstones to browse".

grrrr to those evil people with all their great books for sale.

but a distant memory....

... on Thursday I was looking up at blue skies from a sun lounger and today I had my winter gear on... am not amused.

wow - your logic is very different to our earth logic...

...about to go to bed and was just doing the round-up of various blogs I read.

came across this link on Neil Gaiman's blog.

the Chinese government have stated that the Dalai Lama has to get permission from Beijing before reincarnating - yep you read that right.

I really want to know how they're going to enforce this one - or how they're going to know if he does..!

birthdays, birthdays, birthdays...

Happy 30th to Mike - 4 days late - although I did try to text him on the day but didn't get the time-zone thing-ey right, so it was about 6 hours early!

Happy 34th to Keith - brother-in-law - actually today!

and - the most important, and incredibly amazing...

HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY to my nephew Jay for yesterday! Wow - that went really, really quickly!
