I find it hard to stop thinking in rhyme, I'm sure I'll get used to it in time.

I find it hard to stop thinking in rhyme, I'm sure I'll get used to it in time. Bank Holiday Monday feels like weekends So I'm also finding that it never ends. But I'll do as by Phil I am bid And forthwith put upon it a lid. It's been a little slice of heaven. Farewell! to Rhyming Week Twenty-Eleven. Martin

Never at my most sparkling on a Monday anyway, but this morning it felt like my body had arrived at work but that my brain had yet to put in an appearance. I don't seem to have become much more awake since. Ah well, halfway through the day - just another four hours or so and I can head home..... I think I shall try to find the more simple elements of my job to do this afternoon as they will be less affected by my absent brain power.

Up in the loft hunting more stuff to sell. Why does it never seem to do anymore than scratch the surface?

Tell me about it.
My Toy Fu sales barely seem to have made a dent.

I think at somepoint I'm going to need a real MASSIVE clearout

I have a big clearout coming, I have too much stuff: it is not becoming. Space has become an issue, Also items damaged by damp make me reach for my tissue.

Clearouts are healthy things to have every so often. I try to make sure I have two or three a year so as to stop stuff piling up. Although it has become slightly less pressing since I discovered all-you-can-eat DVD rental because I buy significantly fewer DVDs in a year than I otherwise would. But still, it is always worth sorting through stuff every so often.

Did a lot of clearing out last month. Its very liberating.
Any freed up space will be taken up by newer stuff for Blaise. That's fine with me as I much prefer to buy her toys etc and watch her enjoy it all.

NO! In fact said DVD originated in the Burns collection. I'm merely showing it the respect it deserves by passing it on to another victim.... I mean viewer!

That reminds me. I still have Starship Troopers 3 in this house which I have been informed need not be returned to its original home. Is it fair to give it to a charity shop where some other poor soul might be exposed to it? On the other hand do I have a suitable, sure and certain method of destruction to hand to safely deal with it.
I might have to take the easier path and put it out in the world to ambush some unwary shopper.

What is this lego dvd thing

Ken asked a while back for a DVD that was "donated" to Phil's DFiS. I couldn't find it when he last visited so said I'd send it on. I needed to send him a legoman so fitted it in the DVD box.
as for which DVD it is ......
