stuff

• Never tell someone your car is running great just before embarking on a long car trip.
• Been playing Civ III PTW with Emma lately, it works quite well, but seems rather buggy and maybe not quite as well thought out as it could be, maybe Civ 4 if there is one will get it right.
• Went to see Terry Pratchett speak, and get books signed today. So did lots of other people
• The guy across the street seems to split his time between wandering around his front yard smoking and talking on his mobile phone, and washing and polishing his shiny new XR8 Ute.
• Got a letter from Urban services recently saying there had been complaints of dogs barking in the area, wanting me to comment and tell them which dogs were barking (all of them) and at what addresses (all of them). I’m not going to answer, because whilst I don’t appreciate the feeling of trying to get to sleep in a kennel, I’m not going to be responsible for having someone’s dog taken away from them.

And that’s about it….off to bed now…
Or maybe I should start packing…..
