Shopping and Farscape

Not a lot to report today. We had a lie-in and then Brett got up to go to the gym and I did a few domestic chores. We drove down to Kingston for lunch and to do some shopping. I had bought Brett a work satchel for Christmas, but it turns out it’s similar to one he already has and never uses, so he got it refunded by Selfridges and we were off looking for more of a day-sack kind of thing. I was also looking for a particular MP3 player/tuner to listen to while cycling to work.

After a good wander around the lovely town centre Brett had found what he wanted and I had determined that iRiver wasn’t stocked by many retailers, so we headed home and I bought it online.

We had been intending to go to a friend’s housewarming party in the evening but wimped-out and chose to stay home and do geeky things instead. I had amendments to make to the latest draft of the Chorus Election Procedures and Brett had work to do on the Chorus website. Watched a couple of Discovery Channel programs in the background and then settled down to the first episode of the new Farscape mini-series which was very good. Ben Browder is still getting some cracking one-liners and the story isn't bad either!
