Carol had a lovely top on this week!
And Rosita did some acting ...she's dead soon
Oh and Glen's alive ( really?)
And Tara flipped Rick the bird
And then the walls Of Alexandriacame tumbling down.....
The MSFinale is next week!
Happy Days
fair do's to the Prof,
I got home late after work this morning all tired and worn out and I was ecstatically happy when I found the cottage beautifully tidy with the dogs all lined up in a row waiting for me like the Von Trapp Children in front of the Baroness.
I suddenly thought I was living in a parallel universe.
The worktops in the kitchen were cleanly wiped down and free of clutter.
The washing up bowl was empty and smelling fragrantly like a posh girl's foo foo and the recycling was all organised and ready for bagging up.
As I wandered through the cottage, I began to notice other things.
Instead of being scattered around the living room with gay abandon, the sofa cushions were all neat and tidy and not on their usual place on the floor where Winnie hurls them and upstairs the bed was made, and the bath room towels all put away!
Its a joy not to be faced with minutiae of shite when you are tired.
I made toast and eggs for myself and shared the crusts with the dogs . Then I had a hot bubble bath and by 9.15 I felt all clean, zen-like and back to normal.
I put on clean jim jams and skipped to bed with a light heart.
..........and in my bare feet stood directly in a large mouse-gut pool of Albert puke which had thoughtfully been deposited in the centre of the bedroom floor.
Bloggers
Blogging and bloggers never cease to surprise me
You can work your creative juices off on one piece of work and get .a couple of comments, then drop in a brief discussion on gun laws and receive 100
My good friend Rachel, who always shoots from her hip , had knocked up,a collection of three line blogs, ostensibly when bashing on her lipstick before catching the train to work, and collected a score of appropriate comments.
It only took her ten minutes too ( presumably one handed).......
Oh.....It's an interesting phenomenon
So.......what nugget of information shall I share today?
Ok , run with this one
I have incredibly small ears

A Masterclass: Benjamin Ferencz
I told you earlier that apart from a crazy cat flap abusing Welsh terrier puppy little of note has happened today.
I was wrong.
For, when I was sitting in Fanny , waiting for the Prof to get off train, I turned on radio four to listen to Eddie Mair.
Mair was interviewing 96 year old Benjamin Ferencz.
Ferencz was a lawyer and is the only surviving member of the prosecuting council from the Nuremberg Trails.
He has been an advocate for global justice for half a century.
It was a sobering, and electrifying piece of radio.
Ferencz ,is still a force to be reckoned with.
His recollections of the Nazi war trail as well as the atrocities he witnessed at the liberation of the death camps were eloquent, disturbing and incredibly honest.
He led Mair with all of the deftness of a great, good man.
I listened silently to the whole thing totally spellbound
If you get a chance to listen to it..do so see

Bugger All
No news day today.
Mary has worked out just how the catflap works and is making it her mission to abuse it
But that's about it
I'll post a sweet photo in lieu of anything exciting
Bloody Mindedness
The Prof will hate me saying this, but he has been nominated for the Welsh RCN " Nurse of the Year award" How good is that? Now he has not worked as a clinical nurse for decades, so choosing academic research rather than bedpans has been his way of making a difference within nursing.
He's good at it too.
So today, he is on the way to Cardiff with his dinner jacket. I did have the opportunity of going too but puppies need babysitting........I hope he's prepared his best Kate Winslett nominees face.
Anyhow before I dropped him off at the station, he mentioned that scotch egg that I found yesterday.
" They are not the healthiest things in the world" he commented
" I know.....but I've only had two in the past month" I confessed.
The Prof gave me the Roger Moore eyebrow look.
I dropped him off at the station wishing him luck , then drove around to tescos, quick sticks, and in my pyjama bottoms and coat , I ran in and bought a sneaky two pack!
Hey ho
OMG OMG OMG!
It's been a grotty average wet autumn day today
A grotty horrible day
Until..........
Until I found one frozen sainsbury's scotch egg
Stuffed down the side of the fridge freezer!
Oh joy
Now
Do you know how quickly you can defrost a scotch egg?
3 hours 10 minutes
But only when you perch it next to the radiator
Fan, fanny-tastic !!!
Fan, fanny-tastic !!!
You can have the turkey but touch the scotch egg and you die
