Deck the halls

I now have tinsel and two little golden bells around my PC . Today I have been decorating the office and putting the plastic tree up, I seem to be the only person bothered to do it but that is fine because I love it. I keep humming 'deck the halls' and have it badly stuck in my head.

I cooked a roast chicken last night and made Nick watch The Empire Strikes Back. I find it unfathomable that he has never seen the original Star Wars trilogy and I have been rectifying this. Tonight we're on to Return of the Jedi. I can't believe he missed out on something so fundamental to my younger life, I can sadly quote Greedo from the 'Cantina' scene in 'A New Hope'...

'Ooo da boota Solo?'
'So, bitta lay. Jabba wanichi cova, pakee cheeta'

quite badly translated as 'I have been waiting a long time for this Solo. Jabba is very unhappy with you'.

I know I'm a geek. Our sky dish was knocked out in the gales a few days ago so we're watching vids/DVD's every night.

Tonight I've got to do some more DIY. *sigh*. I really don't fancy it but them tiles aint gonna lay themselves unfortunately. Out granite worktop arrived from the UK yesterday and I got to see it today, it is so pretty and sparkles in the light. It took three men to bring it up the stairs, I'm glad I wasn't there cos I'd have been useless.
