Stuff
I haven't been playing here for a while. I have been on holiday in the west country - Somerset and Bristol. And then working, this week.
Yesterday morning, I lay in bed early in the morning listening to the radio. I was more than half asleep. The early morning business bulletin introduced (as I heard it) "an analyst from Intel." He then started talking about cheese. I thought this was so bizarre that I thought I must have been dreaming.
It was only when I heard the later business bulletin (basically a repeat of the earlier one) that I realised I had got it wrong. It was an analyst from Mintel, a market research company. I still found it very bizarre that he was talking about cheese, though.
Looking at the listings in today's Grauniad, I was interested to see that ITV2 was showing the movie "Groundhog Day" today (though not really, since I don't have Freeview). When I saw they were showing it tomorrow, too, I had a real feeling of deja vu.
