I'm ever more envious of emsk and ed and their jaunt. That bridge looks amazing.
It is sunny outside here in Oxford, but there's nowhere for me to go really. I could wander down to cowley centre I guess, get out of the office, see what's about.
How's preperations for your PARTY going kate - do you still want treacle puddings?

Anyway, here is something to cheer you up, FP: think of the photos of David Tennant in the fashion section of this weekend's Guardian.
Also OH GOD YES, I ALMOST FORGOT!!!! Apologies to everyone in the A section of my phone (Anna, Archel) because it went mental and decided to randomly call or text all of you. It seems to have stopped happening, so I don't think it was a virus. Possibly my ass suddenly developped the urge for a social life of its own.
And, for no apparent reason, here is a photo of Dylan Moran, with the exact colour I am going to be painting mine house:

God, his nose is pointed. Errrmm... wow.
― STOP! Time Thief! (kate), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 10:51 (nineteen years ago)
Mmmm! Surely they must have convinced everybody else of his cuteness?
I don't mind rainy beaches if I'm wrapped up warm. Today I'm not, so I retreated back to the office.

They were lovely photos, though. Maybe if they'd been in profile, and I could have assessed the pointiness of his nose?

Dylan's expression suggest he's searching for the half-naggin he hid in his hair for emergency situations.
I meant to ask about that perfect blank text.
― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 11:14 (nineteen years ago)
I blow hot and cold on David Tennant OO-ER no srsly sometimes I think he is very very hott esp in nice wide tweedy trousers but I agree there is something slightly wrong in his lower face. Is it just... too small?
I seem to be mainly arsing around on OkCupid today, for no real reason.

I don't think many people on earth have noses as pointy as Dylan Moran. Except maybe Jared Harris. Is there a secret corner of Ireland where the boys sit and sharpen their noses?

I need to dress up . . . AS A DOORMOUSE? Where am I gonna get a doormouse costume?
Mind you, the last Jungle themed party was about as un jungle-themed as it's possible to be. Except for the vines, which were very good.
I don't think they actually built the bridge
I never said they did - I just said it looks brilliant!
That colour is a GOOD colour for your room. I'd be scared of all the angry colours personally, but it will look impressive and homely at the same time!

It will be a very loose interpretation party, JB. It does not necessarily have to be a costume party, but one should be Alice in Wonderland themed in some way.
I wonder if there will be a mad Irishman to help me chop wood. Can I have Dylan Moran, please? Though I don't imagine he would be very good at it; too weedy.

Well, yesterday I did the "New->Lon" part. (Same timing, diff direction). Return journey Wednesday night. Anyway, have not slept properly overnight, so umm.. whatever.

I'm taking a break from painting and drinking and trying to decide if I've picked the wrong pink. Oh no! It looks better during the daytime than during the night. Or is it the other way around? I don't know.
Dammit, Mr. Knight said he was going to email me instructions on how to become a Lady Freemason but he clearly hasn't been in his office yet. :-(
Anyway, what this thread needs is some more Dylan Moran, clearly:

Of course!
One afternoon in a pub has left me feeling cheerful, optimistic, and thinking: why don't I just go out and do all the things I want to, instead of sitting at home whining about being too shy to do anything.
Not sure how long it will last, but it's good whilst it does.

I have finished painting my living room/kitchen (though I haven't done the paisleys yet, they may have to wait. It's still pretty eyebending. And I can spill Merlot on the purple bits and Rose d'Anjou on the pink bits and have it not stain!) and am going to try to get a start on the bedroom before I have to go to some reading tonight. Oh, and I have to pick up bits of furniture this afternoon. I'm running out of money, argh! Why is paint so expensive?
Did I not comment on your dream, g-kit? Sorry, I thought I did. Whoa! I was in your dream. ACtually, that's kind of cool, I like the idea of being in other people's dreams so long as I'm more glamourous and exciting than in real life.
No Masonic email from Mr. Knight. He has forgotten me, bah. :-(
