beckymonsterOkay - t-minus 36 hours (ish!) 'til I ship off out to Edinburgh.
The suitcase is packed - still wondering if I should do some last minute laundry to pack another pair of pants - lord knows I've got enough knickers in there! And enough shirts! And two jackets! I have almost everything else I need - am dithering about taking my own towel... will consult with wiser beings than me tomorrow... Namely my Mum who's birthday it is today!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!
We went out for a pub lunch near the local river - saw swans (alas not the nekkid men type - daymn!) and large boats and got a sun-headache. Dinner was lovely - fish and chips, supposedly a small portion but it was HUGE! Guess who won't be needing to be fed again today!
News on the ongoing BSG and keyboard sagas...
According to a 'kosher' looking site - Sky have announced that BSG will be part of their 'Autumn' slate - which I'm taking to be anytime from about September 21 onwards (or thereabouts) wouldn't you? Which will contradict another source (TV Zone) that's saying JANUARY.
If the latter is correct - fire up them thar torrents! More as I get it.
Keyboard - the cat had a run in with the local moggie mafia. He's been limping badly for the last couple of days, but he's better now... You could call it karma but I'm not that cruel.
Also phoned Toshiba - they can fix it, but it does mean replacing the whole keyboard (it IS a laptop!) which is going to cost at least £15 (plus labour and taxes) which means if I get change out of £50 I'll count myself lucky! I'll phone them when I get back from Edinburgh - gives me time to prep the 'puter before hand.
Not that there is anything incriminating on here but... I don't want some engineer reading through my J/D smut thank you very much!
I will leave messages on here tomorrow - just in case;)
