It's still only Thursday? Excellent. Having an unstructured week makes the time pass more slowly.

Thus far I have: Slept about the same amount as usual; bought a walking stick and a breadmaker, thus bringing the middle-class edifice to its knees; had to explain Moorcock to an excitable curry-house audience; cycled across Bristol in straight lines for a laugh (At least I know the location of Bristol Central Lawn Tennis Club now. Should I be among strangers at a party and the question asked, I can leap forward with a location-based answer) and then walked several miles home with a puncture; written some words; had occasion to use the internet for the purposes of making enlargements of holiday snaps and, um, some other stuff.

A notable and tiresome failure has been the idle quest (a chap must never give the agents of commerce the idea that their existence is anything other than a vaguely necessary evil for keeping the proles at bay) for black boot-cut jeans. Not one blasted shop, boutique or hut within the environs of that benighted pit up at Cribbs Causeway sold such things. Shops are just rubbish and must be stopped.

Via the well-controlled Making Light (who had wrabbed his norman lunch) we find a Wisconsin Scrap Trip and a farting rainbows t-shirt.

How many of y'all are going to be far to uberg*th to be spoken to in Leeds this weekend and thus save me the trouble of making smalltalk? (The malevolent sorts will get in my face, just to watch me squirm, obv.)

Good for you for explaining Moorcock!

I think the farting rainbows shirt is hysterical.

Does the last paragraph mean that you won't be at Bibliogoths on Sunday?

Assuming whoever's got the franchise for cross-country trains this week doesn't make a bugger of it, we'll be there.

Without the car? Jason has to go straight to the airport afterwards so I was hoping to scavenge a lift.

My vague plan is to potter across from the station to the pub and then bother a taxi firm when it's time to go home. You're more than welcome to pile into that taxi gratis.

Staying Bristol bound ... think you'll want to visit this (http://www.12daysofxmas.co.uk/) when you get a chance.

I'm so ubergoff I'll be in Sidcup. I would have sugggested a detour on the way back from the North, but I understand that trains don't work like that.

Nice use of the "trouser enthusiasts" tag, BTW.

Ta. Went into different Gap shop today. Were there any boot-cut strides in the right size? Were there buggery.

Hopeless mob of bastards.
