Laziness truly shone through this morning and I didn't arise until twelve. In an attempt to compensate for my lack of activity, I speedily got up, had some lunch and set about being generally useful.

The Mother collared me fairly early and managed to to persuade me to help out planting the runner beans. Not the keenest of gardeners, I reluctantly agreed, but went outside and spent the next hour and a half developing a range of different sizes of blisters all over my hands.

After getting thoroughly wet and caked in mud, I came back inside and spent the rest of the daylight before food whipping up some digital versions of the sketched logos for the MM project. As I hadn't seen much in the way of people in the past few days I organised to meet up with Liam for a drink. I also tried Tom and John, but both had prior engagements, so our crowd just consisted of us two and Mike.

Stories were swapped and the usual pub conversations passed - possibly a little less politics than normal with the two absentees, but I was good to catch up, despite managing to keep Mike waiting for the best part of forty minutes due to fluid conversation in the Kendrick household beforehand.

Once back, a bit of culture (Later with Jools Holland) before bed. It couldn't have been any more of an ordinary day. One thing I have noticed though is people clearly think this place has gone. Ever since the server fireworks shenanigans of a few days back the visiting rate has certainly dropped. Hopefully people will start to realise it was only a temporary respite and now have full access to this drivel again.

One last thing; which is more worth while - a digital camera upgrade, or an iPod upgrade? At the moment the former is looking the safer bet, but who knows, that colour screen and three-times-as-large-capacity is looking all too tempting. Hmm.
