The home of Jam

Well, thats has to be the most.... well surprising conversation i've had with my dad in a long while.

i noticed this morning that a mysterious sum of money had gone into my account. as it had been payed in at a branch via machine, all it said was the sort code of the branch. after a while, i suddenly realised it may have been done by my parents. so i decided to ring my dad

well, he tells the pc we sorted for him is working fine now, and then the my little sister is ok. oh and wait, yes, that she's left school, and is applying for a job as junior office assistant in my dads building. scary.
i asked about the money and he said yes, it was him, he thought mum had said they were going to do it. she'd said they might give me the money for my party maybe. appears they've also paid for my car window too :s well, it seems i am to use the money to get my car serviced if it needs it.
plans when i go home have changed from beer frestival to pub crawl, and now to all you can eat chinese with much wine, followed by all the real ales we can buy in asda or morrisons. this is slightly different from origional, but still a worthwhile plan i feel.
and then, just as i'm going, he tells me that my eldest (half) sister, who he hasnt spoken to in years and has his only grandchild of yet, is spliting from her husband. i'm not quite sure how he knows this and yet i dont (given i am actually on resonably good speaking trrms with helen), but hey. he seems ok, maybe she'll even realise she should make up with her dad, who knows?
all ina ll, a fairly strange conversation i think
right, now to eat pizza...

it's quite sad when one of the highlights of a match is the fact that the welsh, in bright red shirts, have 'BRAINS' plastered across their fronts in white. what possessed them to be sponsored by the brains brewery??

aside from that, the match was really quite dissapointing, especially since its the first ive seen in ages. neither side played particularly well, and ive not seen so many errors in years

grrrr!!!!

i emailed paizo before, since my pathfinder adventure path subscription had shipped #17, and the next one would be #19...

and they got back to me in an hour and said 'yeah, our system sometimes does that if there's a new one out soon, do you want me to add 18 to 19 and save you shipping, or send it now?' which is pretty awesome i think :)

in other news, rum!

today there has been coffee, mini eggs, more coffee, and general wandering about talking to people and being insulted with acronyms. pretty fun day really :)

• 20:42 hmmm, green and blacks cocoa powder may be too chocolately for shortbread... though it does impart magic anti-sticking powers... #
