There are many many things I want to do. I want to do it all. I really do, but I'm willing to wait to do them. Having people up is a perfect opportunity to do them, but whenever I seem to have people up, doing stuff tends to be the last thing on our minds.
You can take that how you like, but when I point out that this includes
amphigorey13 as was,
pipsytip, Rach,
kundrun and
failmaster, it's not all naughtiness that's on my mind. Mostly it is, but not all the time :P
Why? I think it would be nice to get out on the Waverley for a day trip sometime. The Waverley is the last remaining sea-faring paddle steamer in the world, I do believe, and regularly does trips around the islands on the western edge of Scotland.
I would like to go up north, and just pootle around up there, spend some time up in the hills and not have to bother with a plan. You know, in my entire life I have never been north of Dundee, and I only went there once or twice - as a kid, to Dalguise, to the PGL holiday place. And I've spent how long living in Scotland?
I should spend some time in Edinburgh this month - it's Fringe-time. And I'm doubtless going to miss it all, because although I'm terribly terribly interested by it all, having nobody to go with makes it a little less appealing. Oh, and I promised myself I would be very careful with money this month.
On a related note (money), I went to Ikea today. I nearly bought it. I nearly got my table. It's too expensive, dagnabitt. £135 for a coffee table, is that ludicrous or is it just me having expensive tastes and liking the good stuff? I spent just over a tenner - a bread bin, batteries and a bottle opener. Wild. It did take a lot of willpower not to buy more though.
Irene - send me your addie again, I think I must have deleted that mail or it's in t-email and I don't have any way of searching the messages there. I have a CD waiting to make it's way to you.
