Ben’s still not well :( His temperature from earlier in the week abated, but then last night came back with a vengeance. We don’t know if it’s related or not. I’m still betting it’s teeth. He had a really bad night, last night and was very unsettled all the way to about 2am. (Of course, Jon woke up about that time, so I was even later getting to sleep!) Been really really tired today though and hoping for a quiet night tonight! Tomorrow’s my turn for a lie-in; it couldn’t come at a better time!

The badge on the back of the Almera has been ripped off and stolen. Why?! It’s really annoying and we’ll have to get a new one fitted by the dealer :(

What really really annoys me about the current Government is the arrogance. If they were a bit more humble like the servants they are, then maybe their successes would be more noticable.

Ben’s been pretty miserable over the last few days with new teeth coming along. We had hoped that the one that’s just arrived would mean a cheerful Ben again, but no such luck; it seems another is one it’s way too! At this rate, he’s going to gain 3 new teeth within a fortnight.

We’ve accepted a quote to build our extension! It’s a bit more than we would have liked, but that’s the way it is. The builder is the guy who did next door’s extension and comes highly recommended. We’ve also got the mortgage in place, so went out this weekend to look at kitchens. So far it’s it’s looking like a straight shootout between MFI and Wickes.

Gordon Brown is cancelling the UK’s debt with Tanzania. What a bloody good idea. It’s only going to cost £1bn too.

Google’s Usenet History is fascinating if you’ve ever used usenet.

Ben’s learnt how to sit up! Last weekend he definitely couldn’t do it and this weekend he can. He’s also worked out how to get onto his hands and knees, but hasn’t managed to move them yet, so crawling is probably only a month or so away!

From Zend!

We’ve just watched Shattered Glass from Love Film. What a good film! Interestingly the lead is Hayden Christensen (aka Anakin in Attack of The Clones) . Shattered Glass proves that Christensen is actually an actor, so therefore it must be Lucas’s fault that he’s so wooden in Attack of the Clones!

As an aside, I was convinced that Georgina had chosen the film by searching LoveFilm for the actor (I thought he was Legolas in Lord Of The Rings, but was mistaken!) She claims otherwise is adament that it isn’t, and she claims is sure that it was from a Salon article…

Nevertheless… it was a good film to watch, even though we both expected it to be dire!
