Over half way through our no TV month and still going strong. (Lorraine showing signs of weakness…) Our Amazon DVD “American Beauty” arrived so we were allowed to watch it. Can’t believe I had never seen it in all these years. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Valentines day was quiet with Lorraine…
Days 9->13, Friday ->Tuesday
Its amazing how often we have gone out this month – I’m sure it’s not more than normal but it’s much more noticable for some reason. Linda’s birthday on Friday straight after work (for me) meant an evening in Izzi (annoying website BTW) on Lothian Road followed by some beers…
At last!!!
The shower is finished – switched on and fit for use again.As a wee reminder – we started when I was off for a fortnight at Christmas and have been steadily finishing it off on the weekends mainly since then. No TV has helped since it was easier to watch…
Days 6/7/8 – Tues->Thurs
Been doing quite a bit of work on Lorraine’s website TherapiesUnited so that has filled the void that TV has left! For Perl gurus out there can you remember the syntax for sorting an array by two seperate elements – one text and one numeric. I’ll tell you if you…
Days 4/5 (Sunday/Monday)
Lorraine was working again on Sunday but I had the shower to get on with so did that most of the day. Worked on the PC once that was done but refrained from gaming or watching the latest episodes of Heroes!!! Oh it was tempting. Watched Motorcycle Diaries – yes…
DIY news!
Well I think its finally done – the cr@ppiest sealing job ever, but it there was tons of it to do and some in very fiddly places. My hands are waterproof at the moment from the coating of silicon – it will rub off throughout the day I hope. blm
Day 3 – Saturday
Lorraine was working today so was harder without anyone in the house. Lunch would normally have found me sitting in front of the TV for an hour while I munched on a couple of Pitta with hummous(sp?) and salad. But instead I sat at the kitchen table with the radio…
Day 2
Sat at the table and had brekkie together this morning – very convivial. Seem to have the need for some noise to be on in the background though. Radio 1 again this morning – although Lorraine says she is listening to Radio 4 these days! Out to Iggs for dinner…
Day 1 in the no TV house
Odd, no TV in the morning while I have my porridge means I just eat it and go – no hanging about with Lorraine while some cr@ppy story is on GMTV. Probably try and sit at table and eat it tomorrow if we are both up at the same time.…
Gallery update
I’ve updated the Lowries Wedding Ceilidh gallery online with a DVDs worth of pics from Sarah Brook. blm
