So, we spent the weekend in Devon because it was Mothers' day and coincidentally my mother's birthday too. It was pretty good. The boy got a few extra presents from his grandma and uncle because he didn't see them on his actual birthday. We ate well and it was fine weather. So, basically good.
And the weather is finally getting warmer. This time of year I love because winter is finally over. I hate it slightly because the clocks change, but changing them forwards is much better than changing them backwards.
Did you see the season 4 finale of Walking Dead last night? That was a gory, head-wrecking experience. I still want to know what happened to Beth. I may be slightly in love with her, but not as much as Michonne. I want to be an extra in that show. I could be a zombie.
It's April Fools day. Somehow it doesn't seem as fun as when I was a child. Must be the same for everyone. I hate getting old.
I am busy getting ready now for our Taiwan trip I'm at that stage where I'm getting nervous about having forgotten something. I've printed out my air tickets, booked a place in the airport car park, and now I am making lists of things I absolutely have to take with me.
I bought a Sat Nav device for the car this week. The dragon has been suggesting it for a while because she's not familiar with UK geography. I was advised to get a Tom Tom. It seems pretty slick. I'm going to give it a test run on Thursday. I don't very often drive to work, but my train ticket runs out tomorrow and I'm not going to buy another one for just two days. It seems you can buy a variety of voices for the device. I rather like the idea of C3P0 or Yoda, but you can also get Homer Simpson.
Vile Nick Griffin has been out of the news for a while. He's back today however with a report in the Independent claiming he organised food handouts for "Indigenous Brits" only. In doing so he of course upset, well just about everyone I suspect, but in particular the General Secretary of Unite Against Fascism, Weyman Bennet. Griffin is of course just trying to stir up trouble, because that's what he does. I suppose the best thing to do is just ignore the guy.
And finally, a Polish priest has decreed that Lego is evil because apparently you can now get monster and zombie characters. I'm sure I was supposed to read this and think that Lego was evil, but actually, now I quite want to get myself a Lego Zombie.
