I have been to work and groomed a rather lovely poodle. Spent the afternoon in the launderette as the greyhound has projectile vomiting so we have washed the sofa cover, all the rugs and a few other odds and ends that he has upchucked all over. At least he seems to have stopped now.
I have mucked out the fish, done an hour of practice, and am half way through filling the filter water tank ready for mucking out the fish tanks next week. Busy old life.

I'm playing Gogglebox with Mrs Dr Bollo and Ma and Pa Bollo. So far we've heckled Eastenders and effed and jeffed our way through Emmerdale. For the first time, I'm in the holiday mood.

I heckled my way through Emmerdale too! My sister's required viewing. I couldn't understand why the tossers didn't just get a vacuum cleaner hose or similarly fashioned, appropriately diametered tube, plug it in somewhere convenient, and suck the bloody letters out of the box until the correct one was found. Also, the rich man turned poor surely didn't need his coat done up all moodily while he supped the last of his scotch in the big house, when his delicate wife/partner? was flouncing around in a low-necked top with mackintosh...tosh being the accent. THE HEATING WAS ON.
As for the nerds burgling the place - well, thicko screenwriting if you ask me (no-one ever does).
Priya :wub: was the saviour for me, and even she suffered the drunken attentions of a woman who looked like Madge? out of Neighbours. (I wonder what happened to Elaine Smith and Dasha Nahove?sp. - Maria Ramsay ) Now, about Priya...:whistle: must find out when the next episode is on...:snowball:
 
Half pissed.

Jesus 'teef, showing your age there! Madge never struck me as bi-curious, but I guess marriage to Harold would make any woman consider sapphic solice.

The only time I ever see the soaps is when we visit my parents, so I have to make up the back-stories myself. At the moment I've got Deirdre Barlow/Rashid/Langton buying the Queen Vic using money from blackmailing Joey Essex to keep his affair with Mandy Dingle a secret. Little does she know that Holby City's Dr Hanssen also has designs on the Eastend pub.........

...to turn it into a des. res. and start a SME brewing beer and vending organic coffee an halva squares. (No, not the Des who used to live with Daphne, and who managed some hotel or the other, inbetween rowing with Shane Ramsay (Peter O'Brien) or Danny? his brother who didn't look anything like his brother yet Shane must have fancied Daphne - c'mon! (although Peter O'Brien...I THINK... turned up as an 'interest' in 'Queer as Folk' that great series on the gogglebox some time ago.
For the record, I watched Neighbours from the first episode, as I was nursing my son / house husband - whatever the relevant terminology nowadays. I think the first episode was broadcast in about March / April October 1986? and it was good to have a feed, change the nappy, settle down in the rocking chair and watch. Rob fell asleep, I watched TV, then did a few drawings before waking him up for Duplo sessions! Thoroughly enjoyable. I loved Max Ramsay - he was always "so bloody angry"...typical plumber! :snowball:
