I did wonder when "that" would come.
The world was bright and sunny until 5 minutes ago.
Then everything went dark and gloomy.
And now??
Lunch may well take a little longer!

Big Smiles ...
Have just found that Sky are repeating today's Austrian GP Qualifying.

Well, here we are again.
I'm sat waiting to goto work on a Saturaday.
I don't know why, but it always feels odd to me.
Hungry though. Food time!!

If I see another "Big Bite" comment about Luis Suarez I may well just scream.
Quote: "Suarez takes a bite out of England"??

Can I put up with an hour of watching Adrian Chiles before the Football starts??
Not a chance - it's handy that the Antiques Roadshow finishes just at 8.

When it first found favour in the public’s recent imagination (and their TV's) I have to be honest I thought that 3D was a gimmick, a sales ploy for those who were easily impressed.
However, now that I have had that function on our (new) TV I am more impressed the more chance I get to use it.
But then I am quite easily impressed!!
Having recorded David Attenborough’s Natural History Museum Live -3D around Christmas – I am sat here watching and being suitably impressed.
Am now wondering if the Uruguay v England match is in 3D tonight?

Have just found put that Spain is now, effectively, being knocked out of the World Cup.
Now if we could just sort out Holland, Germany, Portugal .......

Good news everyone!
The BBC are remaking Danger Mouse...

Have, for the last few days, been unsubscribing email subscriptions that I don't need anymore.
Yeah God's, will it ever end?

Am now suffering from Some kind of shock
Both the brain and the eyes were slowly drifting back to sleep. the sound of racing cars was also fading steadily away.
Going to sleep on the settee is not a problem for someone who slept on a bus over several hours.
What you don't expect at around Six in the morning is someone (name withheld) pocket dialling you. HEADACHE!!

Once again, we are at the weekend with a to do list that doesn't bare concidering.
So much to do, what should I do first?
At the minute, I have to be honest, "Stuff it for now" is my first instinct.
Coffee Mugs empty. That's a task I feel I can handle....

boo boo time.
Have charged the tablet to full battery and then, for some reason, it then didn't close down and/or enter sleep mode properly.
So, when I open it up this morning I get an low battery warning.
4% to be accurate.

well that's a first (for our house least ways).
The balance indicator bar for the Sky+ Box is showing 0% spare.
Offically the hard disc is FULL!!
Question? Who is recording Jeremy Kyle Episodes??

What was that?
Did someone mention there is Football on later.
Why? Is it any thing important?

There I was, window down. Radio in low with the warm winds blowing through the window.
But then I heard a voice.
Quiet. Mute and indistinct. But a voice none the less.
Then nothing. Well not for a few more minutes.
Then another mummble.
I began to wonder what was going on.
As I pulled into the drive. And the van went silent. There it was again. Coats and bags went flying.
Well there you go
I didn't know the satnav could turn its self on??

You can tell there is thunder in the air.
Apart from the rumble. Apart from the darkening skies and torrential rain.
We have a far easier indication - Dougal starts barking like "a mad 'un" and running round the house

REALLY! Do people really still keep Monkey's as pets?

Can't the Swedes do anything right.
Their Prime Minster takes Angela Merkle, et al for a row round a nearby lake.
And he wholeheartedly failed to dump David Cameron overboard.

Should concentrate on what I'm doing.
There are two mugs in the kitchen table. I fill one with coffee and then stare out if the window atbtbe monsoon that is now pouring down in the back garden.
I reach out and pick up a mug and start to walk for the computer in the living room.
I make the computer chair before my brain registers there us no heat in this cup.
I look down to see a mug full of cut off paper.
Pops, wrong mug ....

Arrggghhhh --- the World Cup starts next week.
Wonder if there is enough recorded TV to manage until it gets to the Semi-Finals??

If I see another "Unusual Activity detected" warning, or an email saying "are you sure this is you!! If not, change your password immediately" even though all you have done is log into a new website (usually a WELL known new website) I may well lose it – BIG TIME …..
I couldn’t even use iPlayer yesterday on my Windows tablet because some security setting saw the BBC as a malicious code attempt???
The world is going totally paranoid.

Its on days like today that you don't quite mind so much being at work.
After being wet through for the last few days, to be able to turn the radio off, wind the window down and drive through a beautiful, warm vista of green trees, red Poppy's and a multitude of other colourful countryside flora.
Lovely!!

It breaks your heart.
There is an old D-Day Veteran on the BBC News, in tears, as he remembers his fellow soldiers, his friends, who never came home.
He describes them as hero’s, but not himself.
They were, and are, all heros’

Do I really have to get up for work this morning?
The eyes refuse to work and the brain is fuzzy (fuzzier?).
Am.guessing I should get some breakfast. 1: I'm feeling a little hungry and 2: the dog keeps looking into the kitchen in that "let me out, and then feed me" twitch if the head he gives.

I really should be doing the bills (or dragging the dog round the park even though I've been in the garden), but the concentration at the minute is absolutely gone

musing at lunch

Here I'm sat quietly having lunch at work while realising that I really have so much "Internet Rubbish" There must be hundre...
