Commuter Love
7.35, 8.13, 17.17 - Don't know and won't care!
Having a day off to get over the earlier train traumas and do some Christmas shopping.
It would've been so much more convenient if Amazon just had a 'buy one of everything' button, as from a quick scan of my shopping basket, that would appear to be exactly what I've ended up doing. However, it still beats the pants off actually going round shops. With a few notable exceptions (e.g. Action Records, a selection of the Bookshops of New England, Ikea) I can't stay in a shop for more than four minutes and forty two seconds. It's a real condition, honest.
Listening to: My hot off the press "Divine Comedy Volume II" CD*, as it's the homemade gifts that really mean the most isn't it **?
(and Neil Hannon won't mind, will he?)
*Oh dear, sounds like The Frog Princess jumps a bit (appropriate, but irritating).
**I'm still not making any progress with the jigsaws, O.K.
