So yeah Maelstrom has now come and gone and I have nothing to tell that isn't completely FOIP except that the Saturday was fun for me as the only time I left the vicinity of our tent I got rained in, in someone elses at the far end of the camp...

So I'll tell you about the other things that amused me. Such as turning up, finding our governor and being told, "God, you're skinny". Such a boost to my slimming ego. Helps that my tunic for running around in and my emergency bought black jeans are as skin tight as I could get them and still wear. :P
Which means no need to adjust it for next event. Though my armour needs a complete redo.

Service stations have strange advertising in their loos...like Expand*whisper* ). Also, for some strange reason that is beyond me, Keele services going north seems to have the petrol station before the parking for going to the food and toilets not after. Which meant I had to drive to the next one in order to get petrol.

Since getting back I've not done much. It's rather strange having nothing pressing to do. Though the sooner I fix the issues with my armour the better. Also with new recruits possible I need to help them with their kit so they fit in...

I had a wierd dream last night with a boat that was a castle, and strange cooks and staff who were soem alien thing possibly similar but more sinister than the Slitheen. There were pig pens involved and gold. A load of royal carriages and I had to save the British Queen and randomly the king of Siam from being eaten by them...It's no wonder I feel tired this morning.

On an end note this was in a communication to me recently "and consider alternative means of communication (pear to pear/managerial feedback, team meeting discussion, quiz question, etc.)" My only thought was that I think writing on pears and passing them round would be both sticky and the notes wouldn't last long as they succumb to rotting...

Now I love the Post Office even if their website has become almost completely taken over by things not postal. What I like best is the fact that the delivery depot is only 20mins from my house so if I don't get my parcel straight away, at least it wont be much of a chore to fetch it. Only once have I had to go to the Parcel Force place nearest me and that is on the same road in one of the post offices.

What I hate is third party delivery. Not because they aren't efficient, safe or careful when it comes to deliveries; no, I hate them because it's always a huge palaver to get the parcel. Why? Because the only time they deliver is between 8-5, mon-fri when nobody who has a working week is at home unless they are ill. So they either think that everyone is a business or unemployed...

But my irritation about that in general pales in comparison to Expandthis )

Fingers crossed I'll have my parcel tomorrow.

EDIT: OK now I'm really annoyed. Ive just realised that this parcel is the set of iceskates my brother ordered. I really feel like wringing his neck now. All that effort and it's not even mine.

Apparently there is to be another spin off k-9 series but with all new episodes.

It's a spinoff of Doctor who and will have Sarah Jane, yes the original one. It's not a family show like the origninal instead aimed at a younger audience (on CBBC) but I'm sure those with young children, or those feeling the urge to be geeky and watch anyway will find this fantastic news.

So yes this is an update of what I did yesterday...

ExpandYou're the Doctor? )

I got up early as I had promised to fetch my dad from the airport. I really needn't have bothered...

ExpandTerminal Boredom )

My woes weren't quite over there.

ExpandYes I can move a small car )

My evening was a lot more pleasant with us getting that elusive thing 'guests'. I got called in advance to find out if we were still meeting up and I just commented that I am the last person to ever know and as far as I was concerned at some point every wednesday night bodies would pour into the house. Got to bed later than I should have but am only as tired as I usually am today so hopefully it should not be a problem, though it has made me very peckish.

Cathedrals, Orcs And Pizza - The Weekend Roundup

Ok a day later than I had intended (due to me having a head cold and no enthusiasm, neither of which are much improved today) but here is it.

ExpandSaturday – Cathedrals and Cars )

ExpandSunday – Orcs and Birthdays )

I'd do a health/diet update as well but suffice to say (after borrowing the scales at my firends) I really don't want to...
