Snowy Sunday

Not exactly snowed in, but it's semi-"bloody cold". Only "semi-" 'cause we get it a whole heap worse than it is right now. Reports say 20cm/8 inches of snow, but we're enduring no more than a quarter of that - not even an inconvenience.

Patent Saturday News... Looks like that's five presents out of seven due on the day. The trunk is officially on its way on Tuesday, arriving Wednesday... December 1st. Now all I have to hope is 1) I get to take the day off, and 2) my "winnings" from the auctions don't arrive at their arranged final destination on that very same day. I want to enjoy My Day...

GASP! A New Look!

Hey, here's a task I haven't even looked at previously...

62 - Totally revise my blog template

- so now, I've gone ahead and switched templates! First impressions are fairly positive, although this isn't entirely what I'm looking for (a customer header image and more control over the colours would be welcome for a start) - even so, can I perhaps declare a *SCORE* here, all the same...?

Oh, go on then.

On Other Tasks... I'm still struggling with

28 Watch one "classic" film for each month of my Mission (9/33)

- I was trying to watch The Lion In Winter (1968), but the cold, and the somewhat frigid theme rather sapped my enthusiasm. I'll watch out for another showing of this, and stick it on the DVR, for future consumption - alongside Kind Hearts And Coronets, the original Solaris and currently recording North By Northwest - oh, and another I can't recall the name of right now...

Yeah, diligent, aren't I? Well, at least one of my Patent Saturday 2010 gifts should help me along with that (check back on Wednesday for the full story!).
