I've wanted this for a while. I picked up a Matsui DA-1 DAB Radio Adapter. The idea being that instead of buying a whole new DAB radio, it's just the tuner, and you plug it into the Aux port of an amp/radio/portable/whatever.

It's quite neat, but I am not at all happy with the aerial. I'm supposed to be in a fairly good coverage area, but the aerial is so poor it's gotta be in just the right place to get decent reception.

I've been back to work on Monday and Tuesday, and it hasn't been as bad as I expected. Been quiet, which is unusual. We all think something's broken *G*

I went to the Playhouse on Friday with Jane to see the Halifax Gilbert & Sulivan Society perform Iolanthe - was mightily impressed. Didn't know what to expect so I'd gone with no expectations. My non-expectations were totally thrown by how good it was!

Saturday I got dragged into helping. Spent a lot of time running round doing jobs for people. Some time in the kitchen helping make food for the cast's lunch and tea, some time talking with some of the band (mmm, their flautist is gorgeous!), generally being as useful as possible.

Sunday spent most of the day in bed, think we woke up about midday :) Off to the cinema in the evening to see Finding Neverland which both of us enjoyed.

Today, laziness and stuff. Been driving about Barnsley a bit, trying to find alternative ways from places to other places. Hoping someone calls me from HR at Hatfield very soon to tell me that they want me. As you may be able to tell - this is kinda consuming my life *G*

I've done everything I wanted to do! Wow. This is possibly a first. I set out with a plan, and completed it.

I've tidied, organised, cleaned, put items up for sale on Amazon marketplace (good thing), and I generally feel happier about the house and my evening now. Been enjoying an evening of different and much more enjoyable radio than normal. Now I've got the radio settled I think I'll keep it. It's very handy to be able to plug it into any radio that you has an aux thingie.

13 items listed on Amazon. I would post a link to them but can't remember how to get the URL. Listened to the news, shouted at the Scottish Parliament's silly idea to ban smoking in "enclosed public places". Despite being a non-smoker, I consider this to be a silly idea.

Consider this - (other than sex/nudity) what other things is it legal to do in your own home, that you can't do elsewhere? I can't think of anything. Comment if you can.
