A long day

by faffajane @ 08/08/07 - 21:31:07

Finally finished the ironing.

Sat and watched The Castle, typical Australian film, lots of narration with funny bits.

Also sat and watched a very yound Jude Law in 'He loves me, loves me not' was just getting into it when the tape stopped about 3/4 of the way through - damm snooker that year overran!

so quite a few vids I managed to get through while ironing. Good thing is I have no ironing and no washing to do Yippeeee! Bad news is all that ironing of mine I did will not fit in my wardrobe! So looks like I will have to have a sort out now as if I haven't got enough to do.

Hubby complaining about the amount of bras I have, won't fit in the drawer. You can't have too many bras in my opinion, you need the standard white and black ones, then the odd coloured ones to go under outfits, the ones that give more of an uplift, the ones that are strapless and the ones that are multiway, afterall we don't have just one outfit do we girls lol!

So big sort out tomorrow by the looks of it, plus a good clean and to take my son into town as well, too much to do and so little time:)

Going to have a lie down now.

Film watching

by faffajane @ 08/08/07 - 13:58:55

I decided the other day to have a sort out of our video cabinet, which was getting over crowded and cluttered.

you know those videos. The ones that you used to tape a programme or film on that you were going to miss, but never got round to watching, before we had the ability to record on set top boxes via sky etc (which I still cannot do). Some had lables on, others didn't which when I went through to see what was on them required me to be quite quick on the old stop button as they were of a sensitive nature and obviously belonged to Nigel 88| check to see if they are worth keeping :ahem:

Anyway today whilst doing the ironing thought that I would watch the ones that I had taped films on that I hadn't got round to seeing, only to find that one of the films I had taped was aired on telly in 1996! How do I know? Weight watchers advert on with the promotion that was ending on 1/8/96! OMG. Now that is bad.

Note to self, if you must tape things from the telly watch them!!!

So so far I have watched a very old episode of ER, an old episode of Chigaco hope, and a film called Dead men don't die with Elliot Gould in it, which was quite funny if only because you kept seeing the boom microphones appear in it all the time!! Other than that it wasn't all that funny really and I have no idea why, back in 1996 I thought I would like to watch it. Perhaps it was to go with Nigels collection who knows lol:)

Ah well found another one, may as well get on with the ironing:)

Wednesdays mumblings

Slept well last night, in fact slept too well as I woke up tired instead of refreshed. I remember Nig getting up at one point to let the dog out but I must have gone back to sleep again as I don't remember him coming back to bed, though he was there when I woke up!

I have just sat in the conservatory, sipping my first cuppa of the day watching the squirrels trying to get at the bird seed. The wood pigeons arrived along with the Jay and scared them off, or rather, decided they were not going to allow the squirrels have their seeds. The Jay is a beautiful bird, wish my camera was to hand to take a picture of it. The woodpecker was around yesterday as well, came down to inspect what was on the table before he found a tree to hammer at!

We get a lot of blue tits and great tits in the garden as well as well as the thrushes and sparrows. Sometimes you can hear the thrushes hit the shells of the snails against the concrete! In the morning the garden is a hive of activity and lovely to see, though there seems to be fewer birds this year than last though we now have three robins instead of two:)

Found a cat had bravely attempted to walk into the garden yesterday - must warn its owners about the dogs. They are new in the area, and while the dogs cannot touch the cats that come into the front garden, the same does not apply if the cat wanders into the back, it is their territory and neither dog is keen on cats, which is why our back garden is normally cat free, they know the dogs live here, they know they attack so they give the garden a wide berth. You get the odd stray who feels brave enough to give it a go, but they soon realise why none of the others come in. The back door remains open throughout the summer when we are at home, and the dogs tend to sun themselves on the patio, Even the squirrels take their lives in their hands so to speak, though the dogs seem to be more tolerant about them being in their garden, so cats beware!!

Have a good day:)
