Has no-one really had anything to say in the past week? Hmmph! Not much to report here and no real plans for the weekend - but a MAHOOSSIVE basket of ironing to do.

That's what rugby matches on the TV are for.

And make it more of a chore than it needs to be? I'd prefer a spaghetti western or WW2 film...

Nah, sport's more efficient to iron to. You can hear from the commentary whether it's a bit you really want to be watching and if you miss anything significant they'll almost certainly repeat it.

Ironing? What's that? In the states, it's the Super Bowl this weekend. Lots of handegg.

Mmm . . . sounds like it could hold a lot of pretzels.

(pen) I'm building a telescope. It has a 5" lens that someone gave me but of course you have to mount it, as Andy Gray would say.
