  2. Just finished a cheer-a-thon of five cheerleading films in a row. I have learnt from these that all the hot cheerleaders in California drive VW Beetle convertables.

  3. Picking up the pieces after a sizeable chunk of my collection was stolen. Really not happy today.

  4. Whilst waiting to get into my carriage on the train home from work yesterday afternoon, only to find a whole football team trooping out first.... apparently they are called 'Sheffield Wednesday' and are playing in Exeter this afternoon, just in case this is of interest to anyone...;-)

      What's up with them? I haven't found any issues with ones I have and the newest (#68) was bought a week ago. They needed a good stir first.

  7. Bad things to find in your cornflakes: your own filling. Ouchy.

      It's odd feeling the hole that's left behind in the tooth. It doesn't actually hurt, and is getting filled again next Thursday.

  8. Moved, despite the best efforts of a broken down removal van and a flat tyre on my car when fully laden with stuff and towing a trailer.

  9. Right, first round of the exams done, got 1 everyday next week, 2 of which are 2 hours along! At least I don't have to do a biology lesson again! :)

      Thanks all! The follow-up to BHTS should be out towards the end of the summer; it's called 'Twinkle little star'.

  17. Just had an offer accepted on a house. I have my eye on the garden for a very large garden-based OO layout. My partner suggested I buy a snowplough to run for the winter - I will of course oblige!

      Open air; yes. It will incorporate the shed too if all goes ahead.

  20. Once again the postman has left a "we called while you were out" note in my mail box despite my wife and I being in the house all morning. Now I have to waste time and money collecting a parcel from the central office. Grrr!

      Jenny Emily

      When I lived in Durham the Postie there had a habit of not bothering to carry the parcel, but just posting the cards he had prepared at the depot. He got into trouble for it though when I caught him by answering the door and asking for it.
