Are You Pumped?
Quote of the moment:
"Legolas, what do your elven eyes see?"
Are you pumped for Film Four coming to Freeview? It's going to make not having a job or anything to do all summer worthwhile. Ah... films.
The week's been good. I have been occupied. It was fun, kthnx, bye.
Just for Prill's benefit, in the last week there have been:
Jim's birthday. Went to the Green Dragon for lunch with Jim, Jimmy and Harry, where the legendary Tom Fell is now working. Legendary because of the Tom Fell song. It's a great song. You just sing Tom Fell over and over again to the tune of Amazing Grace. Freestyle verses between pure Tom Fell choruses are an optional bonus. Ah, the joys of CCF camp.
Minus Harry we went to Pirates 2, where Jimmy ogled Keira Knightley, Jim eyed up the voodoo chick and I admired Stellan Skarsgard's starfish. When we got back to Jim's, after some failed bunnyhunting, we went on a cross country trek to Tescos. Jim's airrifle went with us, which meant that we got in sight of it across a field and realised we should go to my house instead. It was while looking at Tescos that I asked Jim what his elven eyes saw and Jimmy got in a huff because that made him Gimli. He does have a pot though. What larks, Pip, what larks.
When we eventually surfaced the next day we returned to Jim's for a spot of tennis and overfeeding by his mum. Bless Jim's mum. She seems to think even I need feeding up.
Notable events since then: Will T came for a flying visit from Edinburgh and dropped in to spend more time here than with his parents. Charming young man. We were serving Pimm's though. Jim and Jimmy also came for some hardcore croquet action, which I took far too seriously and won with a complicated double croquet when all had seemed lost. I probably had the Smug Jambo Look (TM), although I think I avoided the victorious nodding.
Other than that, I have finished LOTR and the Hobbit and done very little of any use apart from a lot of dog-walking.

It is very much appreciated. I was getting bored and lonely with no one to talk to and nothing to read or comment on.
