Apologies to Lovefilm. Apparently the ‘duplicate’ film they sent me had a bonus disc so it was sent separately. On the site you can select single discs but when a bonus disc is available it is selected by default. I’ll send that guy back today. We started watching ‘The Orphanage’ yesterday. From what I have …

Just stuff
Another entry. I’ve just received my latest offerings from Lovefilm. They have ballsed up the order by sending me ‘Tell No One’, which they sent me last month. They have also sent me ‘The Orphanage’, which I am looking forward to very much. The weather is still variable, it has been raining on and off …
Raining so much I cannot believe it
I decided against my better judgement to cycle today. It was already raining when I left home and within 10 minutes was bucketing it down. I had to dispense with my glasses because I couldn’t see where I was going. I arrived at Waterloo a sorry-looking soggy mess. The water had seeped through the zip …
Very nice day
Well the sun shone all right. It is warm very warm today. Blue skies and a slight breeze made it perfect cycling weather. When Jake had gone to sleep I decided to go for a little ride. I ducked down to Greenwich to take a few photos. I was having so much fun that I …
Route from Ladywell to Bedfont Lakes
I move offices in January so I have been seriously thinking about commuting the whole way by bicycle. I’ve planned an initial route and it stacks up at around 24 miles. Is this doable I ask myself? The route shown in Google Earth is shown below.
The sweetest thing
I just popped into Jake’s room to see if he was okay. One of his legs was hanging off the bed and his cover had fallen down. I popped his leg back onto the bed and put the cover over him. When I did this he moved about and I could hear him reaching for …
London Aquarium…or not
I had planned to take Jake to the London Aquarium today. We left at around 10:30am and took the train to Waterloo East from Ladywell station. It was grey and overcast, the usual British summers day 😉 but at least it wasn’t raining. Jake was very excited on the train. He took delight in informing …
Jake is a poppet
I ordered some photos of our last holiday. They arrived today and I called Jake over to sit next to me on the sofa. He thought the photos were ‘stories’ and when he saw one he liked he would say “my want see that story!”. He went into a bit of a decline at bedtime. …
Sunny August…not
My god, it seems to have been raining every day this month. At least the garden is getting nicely watered. I have harvested my lettuce, rocket and purple runner beans. The rocket has gone to seed and is a little too spicy now. The carrots are going great. I’ll harvest them in a couple of …
Thomas
Last Sunday we went to for a day out with Thomas at Ropley in Hampshire. Jake was SO excited with the prospect even though he was tired after only an hours nap. We went for a ride on Henry and Daisy and then had a picnic. The sky was looking threatening all day but luckily …
