Anyway, thats not the point. I had this really weird dream after reading a bit of Nightwatch. Loosely based on Nightwatch and Trisha. The subject on Trisha was somethin to do with babies - so that was in my head. And then the two (so far) lead characters in Nightwatch got into my dream. And heres the dream.....
There was this baby born. Dont know who it came out of but it was probly a woman off holby city and the relationship to me had something to do with my dads sister in law and cousin. Well, I had to look after this baby. but i was in the middle of eating. Havent a clue what i was eating - it was wafer thin and greasy - like strips of cucumber slices, and warm. didnt taste all that nice. and I was given this small bronze statue thing that moved and made sounds to supervise the baby playing with. So I was doing that, feeding the baby, washing etc - just the general looking after. ANd I noticed on the sideboard two calling cards from two different institutions. A force of evil and a force of bad I think. Well, one card was from Commander Vimes, the other was from someone else, but the name was blurry. The organisations sounded pretty good, but i dont remember those either!
Well, that was it. doesnt sound that interesting, but it freaked me out for some reason - u know when u wake up with a feeling. well that.
bfn :-)
1) Mom asked me if i'd joined a cult. I, said no. But maybe with a few extra words.
2) I just completed a plane journey from Birmingham (UK) to Brisbane (Aus). Its taken me since about 3pm - so shall we call it 10 hours? Did all the navigating by myself. Except towards the end. I was getting bored after the Phillipines and so kept speeding up time even more, So i kinda neede to cheat and use cooordinates to get me out the mess. I also ended up turning off the need to refuel. Right, emails and then off to bed I think. Night All x

I went to see a film with parents. It was 'Johnny English'. It was good. I was doin quite a bit of laughin! And (even better) the kids round home can shut up during a film - not like the kids I saw in Huddersfield that were too thick to notice that the film had started! I like the films Rowan Atkinson does - I think I'd class myself as a fan.
Talking of films, the Red Dwarf film FINALLY has made some more progress. Since this time last year, the latest news had been that dress rehersals had taken place. But now, yes NOW, they're in the process of finding a place to film in Australia! With production now starting in September (if all goes well). At last!!!!!!! The plot sounds good - homeosapeinoids are chasing down the Red Dwarf crew. Now theres a few questions in the flyer I saw, but never mind! They said it was a bit wrong. But it's on the Red Dwarf site, not too suprisingly - www.reddwarf.co.uk
Dentist:- Possibly ripping me off. Ive been going there all the life of my teeth and all of a sudden - now that i have to pay for my treatment - he's been sending me to the hygenist and giving me x-rays. No that I mind, cos at least my teeth will be in tip-top condition, but its not nice if its not needed. Plus I forgot all about my mobile when I went into the x-ray room, so it was still switched on while they were taking the piccies. And whats funny is the woman who did it has been there ever since I was little. She's the 'senior nurse' now.
House Hunting:- Went suprisingly well. Expected to be completely stressed out by the time I got back. Turned out just to be boring. Everywhere was lovely, the bad areas were no worse than where i live now. So all in all, a success. Took down some numbers of the more relevant estate agents just to give myself a head start when I begin searching for THE place to live. A nice day out though.
After driving round Buckinghamshire, we went to High Wycombe. Ended up buying the latest Terry Pratchett book - Nightwatch. As usual, read the first few pages and couldnt put it down!!! Though it is the first hard back book ive ever bought. well, reading book - text books don't count!
I had this brainwave on Friday (think it was Friday) - Ive been talking to this 'long (5 years) lost' friend by email, but never put her addy into messenger - so I did! Few hours later guess who comes online?! Well it was a strange chat. But very nice. We got on well, and from what I can tell (and from what I could tell back then) we're still fairly alike! Which is good - very good! At some point we're all goin to meet up. By all, I mean her and a chap we were mates with in primary school. Now he's changed. But for the better I'd say. One of my memories about him involves him convincing me I was a vampire. Lmao!
My mate has a good list of questions, So, I'm gonna do them and another one. It's interesting to get to know me. Also, I'm gonna take the (braveish) step of putting a link to this place on my website (eventually I'll make it part of it, but can't be bothered right now).
Im meant to be revising - still havent. though after today I'll be doing stuff. Then treating myself with Nightwatch in the evening. havent got to listen to VOR lately. Listened to Chiltern FM though last night. Had a cosy night in. Without the cosiness though. It was good. Good company, few beers, food, arguing kids and the occasional belch on Yahoo!Chat. Well, I'll get goin on those questionnaires. They usually take me AGES! Mainly cos im an indecisive little sod!

I ruined a house hunting trip today. Inadvertently booked a dentist appointment for tomorrow when I'm meant to be going to Buckinghamshire to look for a house to live in for when I start my work placement in July. So now I have to go tomorrow. But since the nice car is being serviced, we have to take the, erm, not so nice car. Deafness here I come!
