Pretty good. Right now I'm supposed to be swimming, but I ended up going out too late so I came back and should really be sorting out some photos from the weekend
How's your trips out been so far?
Blah!

A mixed bag, bit like h2 tonight. It said 'just now' when I first tried to reply, but has taken ages to get the damn page to load. I'll find out just how long when (and if) I manage to post this reply.
Swimming sounds nice. Pity you missed it. Still, I guess I get to talk to you instead. If h2 will behave...
I finally finished my film at the weekend, and took it in today. I get to go and collect it tomorrow. I shall wear shades when picking it up. Plus a b&w C41 film of various things. I had to buy batteries from the shop for my Nikon (retailing at £6.99 each, and my camera takes two!), but the very nice man gave me a quid off each, "seeing as you're one of those unfortunate people who has to put two in their camera". I love this shop! Gets cheaper on every visit.
Blah!

It does seem to keep doing timeouts every now and again. I think it'll be because of the showing of the omnibus on saturday. It always got a bit slow whenever DNA was on TV somewhere.
Looking forward to seeing the photos. Once again I'm trying to be clever and writing all the html for mine - well a load of cut and paste anyway I should spend time and I might get it looking good but I want them up (hell I paid for them to be put on cd so why not!)
Blah!

35 minutes that post took! Blasted newbies. I only caught the tail-end of the Omnibus program, which I am absolutely gutted about.
Did I mention I found my MSP tape again at last? I was looking at their CDs in WHS today, but the two I wanted were both too expensive still.
I also got my car stereo working again today, which is fantastic. I won't have to take the portable with me next time I go away now.
Blah!

The omnibus show should be waiting for me when I get up to Manchester as I got my mum to record it for me.
Nope, not mentioned the MSP tape. I'm now listening to Whitesnake live on one of the many cds I got the other day when at the trafford centre (I bought about 20 in total).
Car stereos are good things. I like mine. I wouldn't mind a better one so I don't have to fiddle with the radio as much but never mind.
Finally finished sorting out the spring onion meet pics. There are three lots up that I know of now. mine, metal chicken's and croz's.
Blah!

I had someone taping Omnibus for me, but they got the wrong channel.
20 CDs is a lot! Hope they were good value then. Buy anything interesting?
I think I've seen Croz's pics so far, cause they always seem to be the first up. Looks like someone else round here will be getting himself a reputation. And don't give me any of that 'hugging by proxy' malarky either.
I'll check out Metal Chicken's next then, and this other person who's just signed in.
Blah!

CDs, new ones by Air (good, unlike Moon Safari) and the Super Furry Animals (totally excellent, unexpectedly the best thing I've heard in a while). Old ones (best of sinatra, 10cc, Whitesnake Live) and some you probably wouldnt have heard of (VAST - Music For People, Apollo440 - Millenium Fever, Dreadzone - Second Light).
Croz has a digital camera I think.
What do you mean a reputation? I no understand!
Blah!

Oh hang on... *moves a bit closer* There... that's better... your halo slipped.
No, I know nothing either now that you mention it.
Just innocents abroad...
