as I've often said ...

there's a Fast Show quote for pretty much any occasion. Yesterday's was:

Did you get the things we needed?
no, but I got a glass teapot, three very expensive bottles of single malt whisky (and one equivalent Kentucky Bourbon), and two organic sirloin steaks at £13, if you please. The alcoholic beverages were for perlmonger, who is fond of a tipple of an evening. He has a wide range of such things, but they all seem to be running out at once. Tragically, I can't drink whisk(e)y any more - it doesn't agree with me. Just like coffee and red wine. Life is barely worth living.

we shouldn't be allowed out, really. Three cookery books, one novel, a haul from the health food shop, and - foolishly - a quick pop into our favourite kitchen shop. And I only wanted some muslin, honest.

in other news, I did some (to me) hideously complicated ColdFusion/mySQL work yesterday that actually functioned as I want it to - even perlmonger was impressed. Surely it's not possible that I am turning into A Programmer?

Eek! That's too scary to contemplate.

I get by on *huge* amounts of tea - Earl Grey and Chai, mostly. But I've cut my drinking down a lot.

I think I've been taken over by someone sensible - it's hugely depressing.
