Right … I really need to sort out my TV license!
I got paid, yesterday: and, of course, tried paying off my bills: including the license.
For some reason, though … ?
The card wasn’t accepted: in neither of the shops I tried.
Why?
I have no idea.
I can pay online: and have ordered a new card.
But it was very frustrating, not to be able to pay it.

Talking of TV?
I managed to catch the first episode of the TV series, Wednesday.
I think I preferred Angelic Huston and Raúl Juliá as Morticia and Gomez: although Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán are very good in the roles.
And Guzmán is closer to the original strip in terms of his looks.
The series also sees Christina Ricci — who played Wednesday in the 1990s movies — in a minor role.
Jenna Ortega as the title character, though?
Is very impressive.
And vaguely reminds me of Jerry Ryan’s portrayal of Seven of Nine*, from Star Trek: Voyager.
They both drop breeze-block one liners into a conversation … and steal all the laughs along the way.

Just as a positive thought … ?
I was at my weight management meeting, yesterday: and … ?
Found my weight has gone down by 1.6 kilos: wiping out the 600 gram gains of the previous two weeks.
I’ve not hit my 95 kilos target: but am down to 100kilos.
That’s a good thing!
