when i was clearing out my shed during the house move, i found £40 of book tokens on a shelf. i'd got them from my ex's parents as a christmas present about 8 years ago and totally forgot about them. i finally spent them yesterday and one of the things i bought was a huge ordnance survey world map for my wall, which has all the flags of the world at the bottom. looking at maps & flags makes me very happy. %)
^ tidy(ish) room shocker!
and also related to moving, when i unpacked my fucking awesome Aiwa mini stereo system and set it up, i thought it was completely fucked. no matter what i did, i couldn't get a sound out of the speakers. i was very close to chucking it out, but i thought i would give it another go. this was when i noticed that i'd left a headphone adapter in the headphone socket, which was cutting out the sound. what a fucking amateur. 8) but it is now connected up to my big TV in this computer room and is blasting out 6 Music in lovely quality and loudness. it will also be win for the XBox, yeah. %)
oh, and i also finally found my missing pair of adidas 3 stripe trackie bottoms that i was convinced Kate had accidentally mislaid, because she hates them so much. :D
the trackie bottoms were the most annoying missing item, i was well chuffed when i found them. i had them on ALL DAY the other day, it was just like old times. all that i'm missing now are one of these:
and a can of compressed air, and two cans of foam cleaner. i'll be well snoo-d up if i find them as well. :D
He loses them IJ - the last one lasted 6 hours on him Anyway, he appears to be a bit scared of anything bigger than a robin 8) He sits on a very old stane-dyke wall a lot so maybe he's discovered mice and thinks they'd be an easier target :D
I just got offered 7 days work at 9 quid an hour starting this Thursday. I've only been finished work since last Thursday. Didn't even need to get out of bed, they rang me and I accepted.
Snoo was seeing baby for the first time in two weeks and him mostly being able to walk now. Also watching him and his mum absolutely thrashing around to AC/DC, he loved it the little monster
Snoo there - watching felix chase that thieving fat fucker of a squirrel across the garden lol
Then realising that the cat had got himself locked in the garage - his wee face up against the window wondering what all the commotion was about outside made me awww
