Don’t tell me the score…and other ramblings

I’m snatching a few moments online to update my blog, but in the process I’m anxious not to go anywhere near my usual online news sources where there’s a danger I might see the football scores. that is considering City were playing Liverpool that afternoon, and tonight I want to watch Match of The Day 2 without knowing the outcome…it makes it so much more exciting. Reminds me of the edisode of the Likely Lads (a BBC comedy from the early 1970s) where they try to avoid hearing the aftermath of an England game (see here).

Today I had my first come across with the Asus eee PC, which I’ve mentioned here before. It’s a tiny thing - I think the technical term is a ’subnotebook’ - that’s cheap (£200) and amazingly fast to boot up, considering it doesn’t have
a hard drive. I had a quick go on the keyboard, which seems functional ample. I made a few mistakes typing at normal speed, but I reckon you’d get used to it pretty fast, as distant as you don’t have big sausage fingers. I think I’d like one, just considering it’s so portable and convenient.
Had a nice walk at Virginia Water that afternoon with the kids and RTL. We met a Golden Poo - a cross within a Golden Retriever and a poodle. He looked like a hairier, larger version of RTL. Gorgeous dog, and with a scarily similar behaviour pattern to RTL (very playful, full of energy, likes jumping up…you get the picture).
Tried the Graillot today, and it was horrible. Went down the sink. Now what shall I drink tonight?
