coffee break

Heavens above, the kitchen looks like someone's been searching for weapons of mass destruction. Didn't we used to call them NBC at one time? Actually I think it was an Archbishop of Canterbury who coined this particular phrase some years ago, and let's not forget Bruce Kent who spoke of mutually assured destruction. Who says our clergy is irrelevant?

We watched 'The Straight Story' again last night, what a great film. Poor Sissy Spacek must have thought she'd get the Oscar in that time honoured 'Rain Man' tradition, but it went to the right person. Mr McMuffin expressed a wish for a ride on lawnmower, but as our garden isn't much bigger than one he's out of luck.

Well, I've sent my sister to wrap up the Christmas presents for our other sister and her family. They couldn't make it down for Christmas this year, and expected to come sooner than this, so they just sat there, unwrapped and unloved. I negotiated the wrapping business by holding up my 'Get out of wrapping free' card because of the party. Mr McMuffin also has an 'XY' excuse card for when he says stupid man things. Fortunately that's not very often.

Procrastination over.
