So they found Chris Moyle eventually. Apparently he was too wasted to go home last night. He reckons he phoned in before the show to warn his producer Rachel, but she never got the message. Which suggests there's someone within the BBC who got a wierd message from some drunk northerner this morning....*giggles*

Headed into Mothercare on the way home from work this evening to look at the price of carseats. There's new seatbelt legislation coming in during September which mean that I need to replace the car seat we currently use. Rowan's been sitting on a booster cushion for the last six months at least, mostly at Mam's insistance and partially because the removeable seat-back was falling apart anyway. Now, of course, he's going to have to sit in a proper car seat till he's about 135cm tall, which means I have to buy a new one.

I actually measured 135cm on the tape measure last night - it comes up to my shoulder! If I was only an inch or so shorter, and this rule applied to adults, I'd have to sit in a carseat come September! *shakes head in bemusement*

I got home from work tonight to find a card shoved through my letterbox - from the workmen who're supposed to be sorting out my damp bathroom. They called by at 11.30 this morning! With no warning to me at all! This really pisses me off, 'cause everyone seems to think that because I'm a council tenant I can't possibly have a job! *scowls* So now I have to call them - something I can't stand doing - and get them to reschedule.

catwalksalone - You'll like tomorrow's Due South. Ray gets sent to prison, and Ben goes undercover to keep him safe and help with their current case. Plus, there's an hilarious scene where Ben tries driving the Riv! He does an absolutely terrible job! *laughs*

I didn't tape last night's baseball game, 'cause I haven't gotten around to watching last wednesdays yet. So I'm once again debating whether I want to watch that, or the Peter Krause movie on Filmflex.

Plus a certain little someone's refusing to settle down again. It scares me just how much like my mother I sound when I'm yelling at him to go to bed....

Ooh, Ray and Ben in prison together, now who'll be the wife? I loved Vault - wet Mountie, mmmmm. Also - that's not duty, that's volunteer stupidity.

What's the PK film. I too have Filmflex and sometimes too much time on my hands.

It's not just council tenants that workmen like to screw around. We deliver/work 9-5 - what do you mean you can't be at home 9-5, you have to work too? Oh, and to think we thought you got the money to pay us from the tree in your back garden. Flexible working my backside.

*chuckles* Unfortunately, because the inmates are well aware Ray's a cop, he's under more secure confinement that Benny. But you'll see how that works out tomorrow.

The film's 'We Don't Live Here Anymore', if memory serves. It's the one where everyone's having an affair with everyone else. Maybe not my kind of film, but I don't mind hiring it off pay-per-view for a couple of quid rather than shell out fifteen for a dvd.

*nods* It's a problem we all have, but I seem to get it most from people representing the council itself. The number of times one of the Housing Officers have called by while I'm out at work is just stupid.
