  1. I've just watched Train to the End of the World. I'll admit I only started it because it had a train in it, and to my mind anything with a train in it is worth checking out. So, what can I say about the series? The train is well represented, which is a plus in my book, but the story idea? I guess it's the sort of scenario you'd come up with if you're thinking about all the conspiracy theories surrounding 5G while smoking funny cigarettes! Basically the plot revolves round the world being changed into something really weird as a result of the introduction of the 7G comms system. So Shizuru and three of her high school friends, plus a dog, set off aboard a train to find their friend Yoka. Overall it's a fairly decent series and quite fun to watch as long as you don't take it seriously.
  2. It's been sunny and pleasantly warm today with no wind.
  3. With special shark cupcakes and shark week slushies it sounds like Shark Week is a really big thing.
  4. Today is Thursday, I never could get the hang of Thursdays. There's lots of things I could do, and several things I should do, but I can't work up the enthusiasm to do them. My "get up and go has got up and gone!".
  5. I have several hobbies and sometimes I see something in a shop and think "that's a neat piece of kit, I'll have that", then when I get home I think, "well, yes it's a good piece of kit, but I don't really need it, so why did I buy it?". If you're buying something on-line and you get to the check-out screen and find that the postage is more than the item you're buying, do you buy it anyway or cancel the order?
  6. Quite bright, but overcast. On the plus side it's reasonably warm but there is a chilly wind in the shadowy areas.
  7. You should always keep the important things in mind and get them done, ..... ..... the housework will still be there tomorrow.
  8. A squadron on sparrows. OK so I know that's not the correct collective name (and I don't know who comes up with the names anyway) but going by the number of sparrows that visit my bird feeder each day, and fight for access to the feeder ports, I think "squadron" is an appropriate term!
  9. Unfortunately I can't watch Discovery Channel here in the UK, but it sounds an interesting programme, I suspect that sharks don't totally deserve the bad press they get.
  10. I answer the door, but as my door has a patterned glass panel in it I have a good idea who is at the door before I open it. It's usually the postman or someone trying to sell me some form of home improvement, my answer is to politely point out the sign on the door which says I don't deal with uninvited traders and then amuse myself while they explain why they think the sign doesn't apply to them. Most have no idea what the word "uninvited" means. On a similar theme, do you get annoyed with people who are trying to sell you something and won't take "no" for an answer?
