Really must say "damn".
Jun. 3rd, 2011 05:20 pmI ordered a plant weeeeks ago and it finally arrived, dead (not "this plant has been in the post for two days" dead, "this plant hadn't been watered for a week before it was packed" dead. I've given it lots of water but with no expectation of success.) They couldn't send out a replacement until July, and no guarantee as to when in July (don't any of their customers go on holiday?) They cheerfully refunded me, but what do I do with the empty pot it was going to go in, eh?
The jasminoides cutting that had survived the winter (yay!) but not put out growth at all (boo!) did bring out a new leaf a couple of weeks ago (yay!) but is now yellowing along the veins of *all* its leaves (boo!)
I've left the brand-new book I was halfway through on the bus. The suspense! Can Lee overcome his fear of publicity and ask Tony out? Will the new PA last longer than the previous one? How many demons can one half-trained wizard get rid of?
There's a fly in the office that will neither fly out the open door nor land so I can kill it.
It's hot already and seems like it will be for most of the month. Blerg.
I have little to say about seeing Dylan Moran or the One Man Star Wars show; both of them were a)enjoyable and b)just as you'd expect them to be if you've seen them before. But I do have notes from nipping down to see At Last! The 1981 Show last weekend. Here are a couple of reviews from real news sources; here are ( my semi-coherent wibblings )
TL;DR: alternative comedy eee! Will they ever bring out Boom Boom on DVD?
Liking the new series of Horrible Histories. Yesterday's had "genealogist Sir Francis Guesswork."
