Things to Do

Good grief, where did the year go? Eh? I mean.... Christmas already, surely some mistake.

I've got my Mum and Dad coming over from Norn Iron to Scotland for the Christmas week, Prozac at the ready. Looking forward to seeing them and Lesley has invited a house full over for Boxing Day, everybody welcome. Not that you'll see me mind I'll be in the bedroom playing the Xbox360 Lesley is getting me for my Christmas :-) If you see Floyd Jaguar (for that is me) on XBox Live, run... or I'll bite your bum. Bit worried as to what it'll look like on my SD projector but I've ordered a VGA cable so I can least experience HD on my 24" monitor.

• In preparation for the visit I need to decorate the shower room (well, give it a lick of paint at least)

• Hire a Skip and clear out the junk in the garage and dotted around the house.

• Junk of even minor value (mostly computer bits and pieces) will be deposited on eBay and sold for cold hard cash to fund the purchase of a new Laptop. I currently have 3 laptops in various states of disrepair.

• My workstation requires a complete Windows XP reinstall as it has slowed down to a crawl when booting up. Before that I need to replace the DVD-Rom drive which has ceased to function.

• Overhaul this blog as it is (to put it mildly) tired. Bit like me I suppose. Lots to write about but my main focus for the last few months has been all things Energy. I've become obsessed with Electricity and Gas and I'm not too proud to admit it. "Switch that light out!"

• Note to Tony Blair (our great leader). Start building fecking Nuclear Power Stations NOW!

• Insulate the loft, then insulate it again.
  
  
• Release a demo of the top secret project I've been working on.

That should be enough to be going on over the holidays. As the Master of Procrastination it is unclear how many I'll actually complete. Carry on.
