Painting and Decorating … 

OK … 

GRANTED, I’m not Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen: at least I hope I’m not Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen!

I don’t know if I could managed to be quite that flamboyant.

But I have managed to accomplish something vaguely interior designer-ish, today.

Courtesy of my mum’s decision to buy me some paint.

I think getting her the original Swedish version of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo possibly helps: although I’ll probably say ‘Thank You’, the next time I see her.

That paint … ?

Has been neatly applied to my bathroom, and helped it look … 

Well, less virulently yellow, for one thing.

And, of course, when I saw neat … ?

I’m actually using a loose definition that reads “I only got SOME paint on the floors and/or myself/the keyboard/kettle/tea-towels/what-have-you.”

Actually, no … Forget I mentioned the keyboard … !

You don’t think I’m daft enough to go near a Mac keyboard, whilst covered in wet paint, do you … ?

Be serious … !

Not at the prices CeX charges: let alone Apple*, themselves … !

At ANY rate, let me close up, before I get TOO ahead of myself, and tell you I’m off to bed.

Frankly … ?

Frankly, I smell: and I’m going to have to let the bathroom dry, before I can have a shower … 












*        Just as a personal note, here … ?   I’ve always preferred Apple’s wired keyboards.   For starter’s, the fact you plug the mouse into them has usually confused the living bejeebers out of people …

Post a Comment

I love it when people comment. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively adult. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

If you can also leave you comments on today’s Teaser Video, that would be good.

Thank you.
