Before I begin, here’s why the tumbleweed is piling up even higher than usual around here at the moment: we are sans internet at home, despite the lovely shiny piece of copper between our phone socket and the little green box outside. In short:
BT’s new branding should be it’s good to talk ill-informed bollocks, and Bulldog should really think about training their customer service folks so they actually know what telephony is…

Anyway. Because I’ve been tagged and because I’m a dumb sheep, here we go with Four Things:

Four movies I can watch over and over:

  • Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

  1. ooo, llangollen, woop!

  2. Seeing as you’re in the mood for a meme… I’ve tagged you for the 7×7 meme.

  3. Off topic I know, but your front page currently thinks its 20 degrees C, and I’ve just got home having slid down my road on a sheet on ice. Now, I know there’s a good 6 or 7 miles from my place to yours…Or alternatively, it might be broke.

  4. Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!!!

  5. Yay, I’ve finally been tagged for something. I will try to repond as promptly as possible with my own lack of Internet access…
