I'm a Crab on a Verdigris Slab

Catalogue-a-go-go round ours today. Monst mails me the crucial spreadsheet with a little help over the phone, the Marc records are downloaded, the records are amended and uploaded, just need a quick keyword and Bob's your Aunty. More importantly, Mo proves the sharing principle by importing the Mersey & Cheshire books into her copy of Liberty. A bit of success on the old Heritage front and it'll be all systems go.

Hitchcock at home, straight to the lugholes, catalogue away. Looks like Dave's crew have put up a creditable fight in the FA Cup.

Olè! Tarantula

Er.... Dill the Dog time again. Monst heads to inspect a prospective school for Cal, is battering her head against a brick wall (decent school = no places), I'm not much help because when the action goes down I'm at work and people keep wanting help (perish the thought!). Today it's one of the nice folk from the NVQ course with a referencing query. Feel like I'm chasing my tail all the time, not helped by the need to be where the boy is, when the boy is, as the other problem Monst has tomorrow is the need to head norf for Margaret's funeral. Fling into the mix a corporate induction and the final sorting of the Blackberries. We lose one off the PCTs bill as I swap handsets with Sally's old handset (not straightforward and a key delay is the need to get it to IT at the other end of town first - which we slot in on the way to Lace, it's kinda on the way if you're a drunken spider).

Recruit seems to be coming towards some sort of conclusion. Mail Sally to keep her abreast of events. Feel kinda crappy about it all but I guess that's another story.

D-day for me, so that's pleasant. Listen to bits of Hitchcock, Chumbawamba, Isobel Campbell. The footie tickets arrive too so that too cheers me up. Cal meanwhile complains of a sore stomach, less good, may leave me at home tomorrow minding him and trying to work as Monst does her stuff and heads to the funeral.

I Don't Want to Fall In Love, I Don't to See the Stars Up Above In the Sky

Penalties, always the fucking penalties. Again England go out of a world cup as a result of their inability to score from the spot when the pressure is on. I blame Pizza Hut, there's always the thought of a lucrative ad there. So what have I got left to be negative about? Well let me see..... Transfer a shed load of players as a result. On the positive side I discover by the glorious serendipity that is available to me via web recommendations The Decemberists. I start off with 'Her Majesty the Decemberists' but it all snowballs from there...... Comes via Robyn Hitchcock as I download 'Robyn Sings' and I sup a bottle of Adnams Explorer to deaden the footie dissapointment. Throw some Tiger Trap into the mix too!
