A Quick Word Or Several

Not got much to report, but damn, this must be the best week (weatherwise) for the last couple of years - a bit more of that would be particularly welcome.

Back to (project) work sometime this weekend, and a chapter of some kind may just air next week. Pity it's so easy to pick up one of the Archive projects and reel off several reformatted chapters...

...and that's about it for tonight. Maybe I'll get my "birthday present" to bond tomorrow, with a view to an official unveiling on Sunday (that's Ultima Online I'm talking about ;-) ).

The Week Stalls...

Poo. Managed to leave home in just enough time to miss this month's comic delivery - guess I won't see that 'til Monday now...

Thank the gods I've not been doing anything serious or expensive this week, 'cause things haven't exactly gone to plan over the last seven days - don't get me started about the total waste of time involved in booking my Iron Man ticket online.

Stuff-lets... Interesting how all the trailers on the 2-disk Golden Compass DVD feature the entire book-as-film, with glimpses of the actual climax of "Northern Lights". "Extended Edition" my ass...

- I don't buy more than one version of a DVD normally - I go for the two-disk - but when you get the chance to grab the two-disk Sky Captain and The World Of Tomorrow for £2.99, you go for it. Having already bought the one-disk for £7.99 a while back, that's the equivalent of £10.98 for the desired version - and that's still a bargain.

- Agh! I was struggling to find a book to buy on my shopping trip earlier in the week - no sign of the Planet Hulk collection, for a start - then just now, I remembered there was a new Phillip Pullman "gap-filler" from the world of His Dark Materials...

Typical. And my greater dragon still hasn't bonded.
