Which I'm working on, honest. Lots of things happened this week. I came back from a con. My debit card did need things doing with it so I could use it, it turned out. I went to see a dance thing on Thursday, which was great. I had to do food shopping on Thursday as well, which was less great. I found out I'd been paid by cheque two weeks in a row, and I can only assume I got something from Jobseeker's Allowance this time, because otherwise I don't know why I'd have had money in my account. Things went off all at once, sort of.
Plus there was Coronation Street. And I was thinking, there should be cons in lighthouses. And cons on canalboats. The only thing that stops me thinking that's a grand idea is the fact that you can only fit about six people in a lighthouse or on a canalboat. Unless you had a small fleet of canalboats. You could hold panels in the pubs the con passed on their way. The lighthouse you can't really get round. Unless people were willing to sleep on the beach.
My current favourite idea about Coronation Street is the one where Tony Gordon notices David Platt hanging around being evil and unemployed, and decides he needs a new underhanded PA. David would have to do filing and wear a suit all over the place, and he could silently lord it over Gary that he had a job. Then at some point Tony would find out that David used to be a hairdresser, and would need him on hand AT ALL TIMES, just in case he has an emergency meeting or someone he needs to impress, and has to look his best. Hairdressing is one of my favourite things that David does, and I didn't really actually watch it back then when he was working in a salon, maybe he has no skills but was just very good at sweeping up hair. In my mind he can at least do a trim pretty well. Eventually Tony would probably take Gary on as a new bullyboy/"assistant", but would still want him to look his best, and David would have to cut Gary's hair as well. While fuming. It is an idea I quite love. A lot.
Select-A-Disc is closing down in Nottingham. That's really quite sad, but it does mean they're having a closing down sale. I made a couple of discounted music purchases. It's a shame though. When it closes, Fopp will be the only music/dvd alternative in town to HMV or WH Smith or somewhere. And I do quite like Select-A-Disc. Oh well.
The TV Choice has a little headline on the cover for Casualty this week saying "Jordan's BIG mistake". LETTING GO OF TOBY, is clearly the answer to that one. Maybe this is the week he realises.
