Heh. What's the betting they get to play the bagpipe night at the Agra, then? :)

Feb. 25th, 2007 11:27 pmLife is very good indeed this weekend.
- I have a dining table. Set up in a dining room. This brings me joy.
- I've just seen Hot Fuzz. Surprisingly bloody at times, but rather good.
- I have new and useful Kitchen Stuff. Including a proper pestle & mortar.
- I cooked Sunday lunch for

misstemperance, mrbear and Elaine (WINOLJ). It was a little late, but turned out well. Celeriac & chili gratin is a bizarre but strangely addictive concept, btw. :)

Part of Tony Blair's reaction to recent shootings is to consider criminalising gang membership. Right. Ok.
Somehow I feel that this might be tricky to prove/disprove/enforce.

Tea, not much sympathy
Feb. 11th, 2007 10:15 pmI blame mister_jack. As usual.
Not for the whole weekend, but he is responsible for quite a bit of it. Including some of the good bits, such as watching Top Gear visit Alabama...

Feb. 11th, 2007 10:17 amStill in London. B-Movie was a great deal of fun (and it was good to see various unexpected folk again...!). Lunch at St. John was also rather good - and it ninshubur's gathering last night was very good indeed, especially as I haven't seen folks in far too long...
And drinking La Fin Du Monde was also quite pleasant. First time I've seen it on sale in the UK - the last time I drank that evil, evil stuff was Convergence 8 in Montreal... :)
Home soon.

I've mentioned Brian Haw before. Probably as an example of just how ridiculous our lawmakers can sometimes be. After all, it's not everyone who gets their own personal law, is it?
Well, he was back in court again today. He won. Heh. Result. It won't be the end of it, of course, but still...

Jan. 18th, 2007 07:11 pm"We did want to interview someone from Channel 4, but they declined to come on"
Edit: "First we had no luck with Channel 4. Now we're having no luck with the Attorney General either". Heh. He's enjoying this, isn't he? :)

Lost the game?
Jan. 17th, 2007 07:57 pmIt's ok, the game doesn't actually exist. Well, not verifiably. According to Wikipedia, that is.
Sorry.
Sorry.
