Tonight, while I was warming up the oven for pizza, there was a clunk and the plug circuit went out. When Tim flicked the switch to put it back on, although the oven made hopeful noises, it got cooler instead of hotter. One ex-oven 
So I checked my email to see when my parents were due back from their cruise and it was today. They live about 3 miles away – Big and I wrapped up the oven ready home made pizza and took it over to Grandma’s to cook. While waiting I put my foot in it rather – “new table?”
“Yes. In March.”
Ah. So it’s been a while – they very often drop in here on a weekend, and I’m never sure when they are at home, but without making further excuses it becomes obvious I’m really not very good at this family thing. Must ponder on how to improve.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have cards to finish making. Big did 2/5ths of 4 more cards, leaving me with those to complete and another 5 or so to do completely. I may be back later, but don’t count on it as Tim has Battlestar Galactica *and* Numb3rs lined up for us to watch 
What’s Numb3rs like then? Got Bones S1 and watched a couple, I know that you need to give things a little bit of time but I’m not sure that it’s going to grab me. All the banter between Tempe and Booth is rather tedious
Numb3rs is worth a look, much more to jax’s taste than mine. Galactica is more my speed, lots of things going boom. Bones gets better as it goes on.
So, I’m betting that family contact thing is going on your 101 LOL! It’s there on mine (number 18) and really takes up a whole section! I’m very poor at contact, but my fidelity is brilliant LOL!
Yup, it’s going in there. Not sure how many times yet – I got to 40 items without really trying, but am struggling around 60 now. Is yours going to be online anywhere?
doh – yours *is* online – I’ve got my sallys confused I think!
your what?
anyway – urgh to the oven. is it fixable?
101 in 1001. Coming soon to a blog near you
Nope, it’s not. It is however replaceable – and has been replaced this morning courtesy of a trip to comet. The new one we’ve got only needs plugging in as well, no electrician required. So all we’ve got to do is get the old one out…
battlestar galactica is the tops – shame we have caught up and just the season finale to go.
also uncertain re bones at the mo.
I think this is just the “Fall Finale” and we get the second half of the series from January…..
Season 3, Episode 12: Rapture
Original Air Date: 21 January 2007
They just have a long break for Christmas in the Colonies.
I think Bones is worth persevering with. If Jax hadn’t been keen I would have stopped bothering, but it gets better as it goes on. The characters get better developed and less irritating.
Season 2 is radically different and much improved on season 1. Actually, you could probably just skip right on in there – but you do need to watch it from the beginning of season 2 as they start an awful lot of character development and it actually flows from episode to episode for a change.
