Spent day at waterpark. Going down slides and stuff. I kept remembering the episode of the Simpson where Homer got stuck! But all was well. Knackard now though. And bloody sunburnt despite factor 50.

Hey BF is your book out today??? If so bloody well done mate. My local bookstore is nae great so will have to go to Norwich to purchase. I want to physically walk in and take one down off the shelves. I won't be sniffing its pages a la Chip and Zooo but the occasion should be marked! 
Well that took lots longer than expected, but my nice light & fan unit over the bath is now in and working properly.
Now I only need to remove the old lighting circuits, fill in any holes in the ceiling & repaint the ceiling and my two bathrooms will be finally finished.

I shall be buying it only after I have savoured the sweet aroma of ink on paper. As Morrissey said, book sniffers of the world unite and take over!
Ellie has now got to find a place to live with her boyfriend. Argh, time is running out.
We need to find somewhere new soon-ish too. Big sigh.

Paint!! Get some spray paint and re colour.
Chip's left his old microwave on the front and rung the scrapman to come and collect it. He hopes it's gone when he gets home.
Bought groceries for an 84 year-old, including Spam, squash and Anusol from the pharacy, which they put in a little anonymous bag for me. I put these things behind my shopping, to keep them separate. As I put my shopping through, I notice an attractive girl is behind me in the queue. But the little bag is still there right on the end... and wondering what it is doing there, she looks into it to see what it is. Her expression changes to embarrassment. "Oh that's mine" I say, and immediately regret my choice of words. 
Oops!
Haha Nogget.
I wasn't sure which of us was more embarrassed. What's more, I've discovered it's not easy to buy Anusol (great name BTW, thanks marketing people!), they don't put it on the shelves. I had to ask for it over the counter, in front of the other shoppers, and then I was asked if I wanted suppositories or cream. And finally, they asked if it was for me!
Great. A wonderful shopping experience.
