Operation "Get Out More" is at the fullest swing it has achieved for some time. Yesterday's walk into town took me past Albert Park's large lake; this wasn't occupied by the usual rowing boats, but instead some small powerboats being steered around between the islands and the fountains at considerable velocity as a three-day-only treat. Consequently there were fewer ducks, swans and geese on the lake than usual, so I'll be glad that the big boats are just a temporary diversion.
Today's adventure involved meeting up with local LiveJournalist ladies
As they had seen their videos many times over, mine offered relative variety: one episode of the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon at its most derivative, one episode of series two Knightmare and one random Japanese game show - which, as ever, started promisingly but slowed right down towards the end. We then ordered food in from the Coral Bay fish bar and pizza delivery shop, whose vegetarian curry I recommend you avoid, and finished with half of Back To The Future III. All told, an excellent night. The ongoing project to get all the nice LiveJournalists in Teesside together in the same place at the same time flounders on apace; unfortunately
WPC puzzles practiced: er, none so far. H'm. There's always Friday.
