[ mood | okay ]

Yesterday evening I had a natter to Spacefan on IRC and to Daniela on Yahoo. When I went off line I made my supper before watching Memories of Matsuko, a Japanese film I'd recorded earlier in the week.

When I got up today I came on line and made a start to my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while posting a review of Memories of Matsuko which I posted on the IMDb, I can't link to it yet as it is still awaiting approval. In #futuramachat I chatted to Maz and FYP.

after lunch I had a nap before coming on line and making more moves in the Kingdom of Loathing then watching an episode of Alias and Miami Vice on DVD. In #dataclaw I chatted to Dread, Nemesis, Kayura, Sho and a few others and in #futuramachat I spoke to Spacefan, Maz, Books and Gort.

The wrong glasses :-/ [20 Nov 2009|07:00pm]

Last night when I went off line I made my supper before watching this week's episode of Spooks, I'm glad that I'd managed to avoid spoilers as the ending would have lost its impact. I then watched Flesh for Frankenstein, a 3D film I'd recorded earlier in the week. When I put it on I donned my red-green glasses which I'd got with my Coroline DVD and was then disappointed that to view the 3D I'd need blue-yellow glasses which I do not have.

When I got up this morning I made a start to my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while posting reviews of the Spooks episode and Flesh for Frankenstein on the IMDb. I also had a chat with Solshine, Ya, Thizzley, Morgan, Winna and Bianca in #futuramachat.

After lunch I had a short nap before coming on line again and finishing my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while listening to Mark Kermode's Film Reviews on BBC Radio Five. In #futuramachat I chatted with Maz, Laura, FYP, TNUK and Books and in #dataclaw I spoke to Sho. After listening to the film reviews I watched Dougal and the Blue Cat on line, it is a shame that this great '70s animated film isn't available on DVD.

Yesterday after went off line I made my supper then watched another episode from series two of Miami Vice on DVD before watching this week's episode of Wallander on BBC4.

This morning when I came on line I wrote reviews of the episodes of Miami Vice and Wallander on the IMDb while making most of my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing. In #spacefem I had an enjoyable chat with Mordak, Lillerina, Storage and Ducknuckem in #spacefem, to Maz, FYP and Books in #futuramachat and to Juliet on MSN.

After lunch I had a short nap ans a soak in the bath before coming back on line and watching this week's episode of South Park which to my mind was one of the weakest episodes of the current series. I then watched another episodes of Alias before posting a review of it on the IMDb. In #dataclaw I chatted to Dread, Nemesis, Kayura, Sho and Rice in #dataclaw, in #spacefem I spoke to Mordak and NoIAmNot and in #futuramachat I chatted to Maz, Laura, Books and Solshine.

Last night when I went off line I made a plate of beans on toast for my supper before watching Zatoichi, a Japanese film which I had recorded a few days ago.

When I got up today I opened my birthday cards before popping on line and making a few moves in the Kingdom of Loathing and posted a review of Zatoichi on the IMDb. While doing that I spoke to Durel in #spacefem and to Maz, Bianca and FYP in #futuramachat. Shortly after nine we set off to Norfolk going first to Cley, it was very windy there but we still managed to see a decent variety of birds including a Ruddy Shelduck although I suspect that may have been an escapee.

We then went to The Chequers in Binham where a had a very nice steak and ale pie for my lunch washed down by a couple of halves of their beer. On the way back we popped in to Titchwell but as it was raining we just went as far as  the shop. Once back home I came on line again and finished my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing and spoke to Kayura and Jekii in #dataclaw.

Yesterday evening I realised that the new series of An Island Parish had started... in fact it had almost finish, luckily all the episode were available on the BBC iPlayer, I had time to watch the first three episodes. Shortly before I came on line I had a brief chat to Spacefan in #futuramachat. When I went off line I watched this week's episode of FlashForward before watching Jin Roh: The Wolf Brigade on DVD

This morning when I came on line I made a start to my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while writing a review of Jin-Roh which I posted on the IMDb. I then watched the final two available episodes of An Island Parish. While doing that I chatted to Maz, FYP, Bianca, Thizzley and Books in #futuramachat.

After lunch I had a nap and a bath before coming back on line and posted a short review of An Island Parish on the IMDb as nobody had posted any comments before. I then watched an episode each of Alias and Miami Vice on DVD and finished my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing. In #dataclaw I catted with Nemesis, Dread and Fengsten, in #futuramachat I spoke to Maz, FYP and Books and in #spacefem I had a chat to NoIAmNot.

Last night I chatted to Dread, Nemesis, Kayura and Tarwedge in #eventide. When I went off line I made my supper before watching this week's episode of Defying Gravity which I'd recorded on Saturday, I though it was better than previous episodes, I then watched the Doctor Who special and the first episode of the new series of Top Gear which I'd recorded earlier in the evening.

When I got up today I popped on line and made a start to my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while chatting to Randi on AIM and to Morgan, Maz and FYP in #futuramachat. I also wrote a review of Doctor Who: The Waters of Mars which I posted on the IMDb. Although it was raining when I got up it had cleared by the half past nine so we headed to Norfolk as planned. Our first stop was the cliff tops near West Runton where we hoped to be seeing some Lapland Buntings, unfortunately there were no signs of any though.

We then went to The Chequers at Binham where I had a half each of their new mild and Bodicea Strong Ale from the Icini Brewery. We had more luck at the second place we went bird watching, getting our first Shore Larks of the year at Holkham Gap, they were fairly flighty but I managed to get a snap of one.

We were rather lucky as a chap who we spoke to as we walked there said he'd spent two hours looking for them before giving up, we walked fifty yards beyond where he'd been looking and saw them fairly easily. On we way back we popped to the barns near Choseley hoping to see a Black Redstart, there was no sign of it though.

When I got home I came on line again and finished my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while chatting to Maz, Books and Jezzem in #futuramachat, Lillerina in #spacefem and to Dread and Pers in #dataclaw. I also exchanged a few emails with my friend Lucy.

I will probably be going bird watching in Norfolk tomorrow, there are a few good birds about and the weather forecast looks promising, I'll have to remember to put my Wellington boots in as we'll go to Holkham Bay, last time I went there the tide was in and I got my feet soaked.

Last night after updating I posted a review of the Alias episode I watched on the IMDb, I then watched another episode of Miami Vice and reviewed that. When I went off line I made a plate of beans on toast for my supper before watching this week's episodes of True Blood and Generation Kill which I'd recorded the night before.

When I got up this morning the weather looked okay at first although the way the trees were blowing around it was clear that it was very windy outside so we weren't going to be going bird watching. When I came on line I made most of my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while chatting to Lizzie and CowboyRaver in #spacefem and to FYP, Bianca and Thizzley in #spacefem.

After lunch I had a nap before coming back on line and finishing my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while having a fun chat to Maz on IRC and a natter to Kayura in #dataclaw.

Yesterday shortly after I updated my review for the Miami Vice episode Buddies was approved on the IMDb. When I went off line I made my supper before watching this week's episodes of Defying Gravity and Spooks which I'd recorded earlier and an episode of Noir on DVD, before going to bed I did the washing up.

This morning when I came on line I made my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing and wrote a review of this week's episode of Spooks. While doing that I spoke to Durel, Lizzie, Mousy and Kirby in #spacefem and to Bianca, Thizzley and FYP in #futuramachat. Later on I watched the two OVA episodes of Gunslinger Girl: Il Teatrino on Funimation's YouTube channel, although for some reason they were both missing the last few minutes so to find out how they ended I had to watch Japanese only versions elsewhere on YouTube.

After lunch I had a bath before coming back on line and chatting to Kayura, Morgrim, Dread, Pers and Ghosticle in #dataclaw while listening to Mark Kermode's Film Reviews on BBC Radio Five. After that I watched the first episode of the third series of Alias on DVD.

I hope to be going bird watching in Norfolk tomorrow although if the weather is no better than today I suspect we won't be going anywhere.

After updating yesterday I posted a review of the Miami Vice episode Whatever Works on the IMDb. Later I had an enjoyable chat with Dread, Nemesis and Kayura in #dataclaw. When I went off line I made some supper before watching another episode of Miami Vice on DVD followed by this week's episode of Wallander on BBC4.

When I got up I came on line and made my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while posting reviews of the episodes of Miami Vice and Wallander which I'd watched the night before, on the IMDb. While doing that I spoke briefly to Durel in #spacefem and had a natter to FYP, Bianca and Morgan in #futuramachat. Later on I watched this week's amusing episode of South Park. When I went out side to refill the bird feeders I had a bit of a nasty surprise; mice had got into the bin we keep the food in but as they couldn't get out they'd died in there. I found a cork which was the right size to fill the small hole in the bin's lid, I just hope they don't eat that.

After lunch I had a nap before coming back on line and watching a couple more episodes of Miami Vice and posting reviews on the IMDb, at the time I type this only the review of Dutch Oven has been approved so far. Later in the day I chatted to Spacefan, Books and Laura in #futuramachat and to Dread, Nemesis and Kayura in #eventide.

Yesterday evening I watched Prodigal Son, a feature length episode of Miami Vice on DVD then wrote a review of it which I posted on the IMDb. When I went off line I made my supper then watched Night Watch on DVD, it was a pretty good film although it was a bit let down by only having "English for the hearing impaired" subtitles, I don't need to be told when dogs bark or doorbells ring, it is just an annoying distraction.

When I got up today I came on line and made a start to my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing and posted a review of Night Watch on the IMDb. While doing that I chatted to Morgan in #futuramachat, Mousy, Mordak, Lizzie and Durel and to Sun on Yahoo. I went off line shortly before nine and headed down to Lakenheath which contrary to yesterday's post is just over the border in Suffolk. When we got there it was still very foggy but luckily we managed to see the Great White Egret... the bird was actually in Norfolk.

We then went on to Lynford Arboretum and had a stroll round, we didn't see anything rare but got nice views of a Jay, a Green Woodpecker and a Marsh Tit. We then set off planning to go to The Stag at West Acre but as we were on our way we recalled that it didn't open Monday lunch times. We got home shortly after midday.

Once back I had a short rest and a soak in the bath before coming back on line and finishing my moves in the Kingdom of Loathing while chatting to Durel and NoIAmNot in #spacefem and to Spacefan in #futuramachat.
