Lazy

Saturday, 12 September 2009 6:52 P GMT
Even after a week that didn't actually contain much activity it was still lovely to do very little today, just what a Saturday should be for.  The afternoon was mainly spent reading or in front of the television, watching an old fi

More rain more food

Saturday, 22 August 2009 3:12 P GMT
Yesterday we decided we would go down to the Quayside.  We would have a bite to eat and take a nice walk.  If the weather proved good enough that is.  And the sun was shining when we left.  We paid a quick visit to The Baltic firs

Windy

Saturday, 28 March 2009 9:09 P GMT
Lunch out today, chips as usual, of course and that was the extent of my travels.  It certainly wasn't the kind of day to be out any more than you had to.  The wind which has been blowing for a few days now shows no real sign of easing

Watching

A slightly different day for me at work today in that I didn't actually do much in the way of normal work.  First off we had a talk by one of the librarians, in the course of which I won a share in an Easter egg thanks to a small quiz that f

Hot and cold

Tuesday, 27 January 2009 8:08 P GMT
I need sleep!  Part of it is my own fault.  For some reason this week I seem to have been incapable of getting to bed at a reasonable hour.  So today I was a little spaced out at work.  The heat didn't help.  There are lo

Quiet

Wednesday, 21 January 2009 8:15 P GMT
For the first time in what seems like ages we had sunshine today!  And it lasted the whole day!  No grey clouds.  It certainly didn't bring out the students though as today was oddly quiet.  In the middle of the exams you expe

It's easy to see this week that Summer is very definitely on the way out - not that we had much of it in the first place.  There is a definite chill in the air, the sky - when it's possible to see it - is a chillier blue and the nights a

Film and music

Saturday, 13 September 2008 7:16 P GMT
It's a day spent in front of the television today.  A giveaway in The Times this morning provided our afternoon's entertainment in the shape of a DVD of The Lady Vanishes by one of my favourite directors, Alfred Hitchcock.

The X-Files

Thursday, 7 August 2008 10:13 A GMT
Horrible, warm and muggy day today which we decided would be much better spent in an air conditioned cinema than outside.  So this afternoon it was into town for some lunch at a nice pub we know then to see The X-Files: I Want to Believe. 

Relaxing

Sunday, 13 July 2008 9:20 P GMT
Why are the weekends so short!  It seems no time between finishing work and going back again.  However long or short I enjoyed my usual lazy Sunday.  Reading the papers, watching a bit of television including an old film, Ghostbus

Hairdressers and drizzle

Friday, 11 July 2008 7:10 P GMT
Finally Friday has arrived after a l-o-n-g week!  And with it came a trip to the hairdressers, not my favourite occupation.  I was able to get an appointment at quite short notice and it wasn't very busy when I got there.  Not the

Relaxing

Sunday, 18 May 2008 9:20 P GMT
Today has been a day mainly spent wondering if the bad weather if finally coming to an end as the sky has tantalisingly cleared and then gone cloudy then cleared and so on all day.  Clear or not it is still quite cold, more so than you really wa

Rain, rain and more rain

Sunday, 27 April 2008 3:13 P GMT
I have a short week coming up at work this week.  I'm taking Friday off to go with the Bank Holiday next Monday to make a nice long weekend.  So I don't mind too much that the weekend is over too quickly again.  Quite a lo

Good not so good

Saturday, 15 March 2008 8:13 P GMT
A bit of a mixture today.  Some shopping this morning resulted in an Easter egg being bought for each of us as a little treat, chocolate is always good.  Then my usual Saturday lunch out with chips and a little more.  My friend an

Good to watch

Monday, 4 February 2008 8:49 P GMT
Slightly different hours for me at work today.  I went in a little later as I was staying later than usual to get some directions on how to shelve a new area for me of government publications.   Then this afternoon it was straight home

It's been very quiet today as finally the horrible, heavy winds we've been having have died down.  In fact it seems odd not to hear the howling wind outside although also very nice.  A quiet day today spent reading papers, doing a j

Taking the decorations down

Sunday, 6 January 2008 8:53 P GMT
Twelfth Night today.  So after breakfast down came the decorations.  It doesn't take half as long as putting them up and it isn't half the fun!  The house looks so bare now.Apart from that it was a typical lazy Sunday.  Re

Advent

Saturday, 1 December 2007 9:52 P GMT
It's hard to believe it's December already.  But it's here and this morning we put up our Advent calendar and this evening we lit our Advent candle.  And this morning we did a little Christmas shopping, nothing exciting, ju

Films and pitchforks

Wednesday, 31 October 2007 11:03 P GMT
There are only certain days of the year when some things would go unremarked upon.  Such as a student queueing up at the desk with a pitchfork in his hand or someone waiting to cross the road wearing a wizard's hat.  It must be Hallowe&

Favourites

A little shopping this morning then it was a quiet day in with some television.  This afternoon it was an old but enjoyable film, Carry On Spying, always good for a laugh.  Then this evening it was The Last Night of the Proms which we alway

The Simpsons Movie

Wednesday, 29 August 2007 10:42 P GMT
Lunch out today, a very tasty bacon and brie sandwich although I do prefer my bacon unsmoked.  Then it was off to the cinema to see The Simpsons Movie.  No question there but that we would all enjoy it.  The only thing that concerned u

Blueberries

Monday, 27 August 2007 9:39 P GMT
A Bank Holiday today which meant a little baking, some television and a relaxing day.  Traffic jams just aren't a good way to spend the day so we always stay at home instead.  And Bank Holidays always mean old films including Planet of

Remakes

Friday, 10 August 2007 10:33 P GMT
In spite of it being so quiet at work the week has passed fairly quickly and Friday seems to be suddenly here.  And with glorious weather too.  So nice in fact that I finally dug out the canvas shoes to wear for work.  I was cauti

Simple

Saturday, 16 June 2007 10:46 P GMT
A bit of a lie-in, a leisurely breakfast, a lazy morning, lunch out.  A nice dinner and some good television with the naughty treat of some chocolate.  Not a bad way to spend a Saturday and rounded off with our new DVD Hot Fuzz which was as

Rain

Wednesday, 13 June 2007 7:11 P GMT
We have horrible, horrible weather again.  Definitely the kind of curling up indoors with a good book.  If I didn't have to go to work that is!  My hair has all crinkled up again and I've had to drag my old raincoat out and wea
