I got a bill from my internet provider people today, for £173! Bearing in mind that I got a bill last month for the line installation fee, which was £116. And, y'know, I might even half wonder if it was my fault, if I was on Broadband too often and downloading too much, if I wasn't being charged £139 for the period '21/05/2007 to 21/05/2007'. With line rental of £8.47 for next month. I would have already called up to sort it out except, like every other fucking human being on the planet as far as I can tell, their helpline people only work from 8.30am to 5.30pm. Which means I'm going to have to do it at work tomorrow, either at lunchtime when it'll probably be really busy, or when I'm supposed to be working. Growl.

I'm not entirely impressed.

I was thinking of going to see a film tonight, but the one I want to see isn't on till 9.30. And I should probably be saving myself for Pirates on Friday anyway. I went to see Magicians on Saturday though - personally, I enjoyed it. Keep your eyes peeled, and you might even see a clip of Rachael's Town(tm) (current town). That's right folks, it wasn't Jersey.

There are still six drabbles up for grabs, if anyone wants them. Otherwise I'm gonna have to start doubling up. And also:


Dear Emmerdale writers,

We have just found out that the youngest of the King brothers killed their father, and the eldest one knew about it, but the middle one didn't. Maybe, then, you should let us see them. Or are they just to be dragged out when you need some drama?

No love,

Girlofprey

That's right, I said it.

I loved Magicians. It was just so cute, and then, suddenly -- Nottingham!

The Broadmarsh Wilkos!

It was totally the Broadmarsh Wilkos, unless the Wilkos at Skegness looks just like that.

emMedia throws stupid money at productions if they film in the East Midlands. Hence this movie being filmed in Nottingham and Skegness. Which makes me laugh to no end.

I'm not going at half past nine! That was the point of the paragraph! Did I forget to mention it? I thought it was 8.30, then found out and figured if it was a two-hour film I wouldn't even be out till half 11. SO I SAID NO. I'm going to try for an early night tonight, of all things.

I know! Slightly shocking. They never charged me the £40 set-up fee, but even so it shouldn't be more than £100, even with April, May and June's line rental. A better breakdown would have been nice. SPECSAVERS DID NOT ADVERTISE THEIR BROADBAND PACKAGE.
