I've had a lovely day at the Natural history museum looking at dead stuff. It's so nice and cool in there, unlike here which is like an oven at present. I think I'll make like a fern and start misting myself.
This evening's important question...If you could be famous for any one thing, what would it be?

I've done almost every last scrap of packing, and treated myself to a bath with beer (drinking it, not bathing in it). And am now suitably tipsy, and most excited about moving to Londonville in a mere THREE days!
I have no food though, as it is packed and at the bottom of a large pile of boxes, so if anyone would like to ferry some food to Northampton for me I'd be very delighted.

I've ordered a pizza as my flatmates are shouting at each other in the kitchen and I refuse to be drawn into it like last time.

Oh yes. Except that he has family round so I can't purloin anything exciting without being seen.

It's sweltering here too - got all my windows open but it's doing no good whatsoever :S
I'd be famous as a novelist - all the kudos and people know the name, but more chance of staying anonymous and not mobbed in the street. That bit would piss me off.

I forgot this part... It would be for learning how to fly. (Alton Towers last week. Still wishing I could recreate Air in my back garden.)

And I'd like to be famous for having written one of the most critically acclaimed yet non-pretentious novels of the century.

Like Mata Hari but with a less dangerous life.

I would hate to be famous, but if it was for just one thing, that thing would be be guitar playing.
I would rather be infamous and do something globally naughty.

I was misting myself when he jumped up and started getting in the way. Totally loved it.

Defrosted manky fish pie + birds instant custard = Feast the dog would be jealous of!

He doesn't look that dissimilar now though. He's pretty happy as his fur is incredibly thick. Must we like wearing several jumpers in this weather.

...well m'dear I'm in Egypt and it really *is* hot here. Like 45C during the day time and as I type in the pitch black, outside my room, getting dive-bombed by mozzies, it has to be 30C minimum.
I'm so looking forward to the heatwave when I get back.
And what I would like to be famous for - the first man to fly. Without wings, jetpack or whatever. Just to fly...three-dimensional freedom.
Up up and away !
