hibernate

1. To pass the winter in a dormant or torpid state.
2. To be in an inactive or dormant state or period.

2008 seems to be becomming a bit of an annus horribilis. Nothing particularly bad on its own, but a lot of problems overlapping and going on and on which have made me keep my head down. As such, fiddling around on the 'pooter has been low priority. However with it being chuffing cold, snow lurking in the sky and Dr. Who back on the tele', I note it is now Spring. Horrah! Time to start to bud afresh, clear out the cobwebs in my head and catch up with a few hundred emails.

Spring

Spring is here.
I can always tell, the moment you realise that you can't buy the things you like in the supermarket because they've had to make room for mountains of chocolate eggs. Gah!
Still, only 5 months until the Christmas Puddings appear.

I am also one of those people chosen by Tescos to use as a barometer of what to stock. If I buy the same thing for more than a couple of months, then they stop stocking it.
I'm sure that they think I'll start buying something else instead, like their own brand. Well, I do end up buying something else, from another supermarket.

They won't achieve world domination if they don't stock my wheaties.
