The Weekly Friday Feast

You so "get" me @Ellie

but it was an independent .. they are my closest and I promised the checkout chic I wouldnt stop coming altogether .. they have become my friends, regardless of what they sell .. well almost.

I long ago stopped giving all my custom to the big two .. but still could improve and get to the fresh market more

Hi @Jacques

I have a few piles of papers in manila folders spread on bedroom floor. They have been on the list to sort out tomorrow for a very long time...just piano teaching photocopies but I need to organise them .. and then there's my desk .. that is writing scribbles and stuff .. I have been cheeky and DONE NOTHING about both than I would ever admit to my students .. I manage day to day from teh kitchen bench and my lap top.

Anyway I will think of you in the shed .. I dont have a shed myself .. too much work lol.

On Sunday I drive son to first performance with the opera chorus .. so it is a big day for us .. hope this social activity pans out for him long term .. fingers crossed.

@Crazy_Bug_Lady

what type of medical show?

Glad you can sirf to your heart's content. I am so glad I stopped grumping about computers taking over the world 10 years ago and got on the bandwagon .. a little bit.

I really don't know... It's House. I like it.

I never watched it on tv.

Its great to be able to catch up on things we have missed though.

I just read first SF in years, and it wasn't even to talk to my son .. a girlfriend gave it to me .. great escapism for a change.

@Crazy_Bug_Lady oh, I think I know that show. It's been going for ages. I've just been watching 'Top of the Lake'. It's kind of like a crime/mystery show pretty good. It's filmed in NZ. I've been watching lots of NZ stuff to get into the mood of my holiday.

Speaking of which, I went and check out some of the Lord of the Rings sets while I was there. It was AMAZING. Check this out:

Does it look familar?

Hello @CherryBomb

Gorgeous photo

Visiting New Zealand is on my bucket list.

@Appleblossom it's a beautiful place. Hope you get to tick it off your list.

Hope so re NZ

Just read the article on addictions and fancy that Johann Hari was mentioned. @PeppiPatty and I must be on a similar wave-length.

Hi again everyone. ... sorry i havn't been on tonight. ..i was intending to be but my young bloke asked me too watch the football with him..

it looks and sounds like you had a wonderful time @CherryBomb... was it cold because while you were away it was freezing here.

And sorry to hear you are doing it tough @Jacques ... hang in there mate and my thoughts are with you.

And i love the series house. .. interesting show and dr house is very funny ... i think you call a doctor like that a diagnatician.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, whatever you are up to.

cheers everyone and be kind to yourselves

Matt
