Kings of Leon #2
Ohhh. Kings of Leon on Monday night, first row standing! It was amazingly good. The guys played for nearly two hours, including a 20-minute extra set. I have said this before, but I think they just might be the best live band in the world today - well at least I think so. Noticed I'm getting older though, it's taken me nearly two days to recover from Monday. Queuing from 1-7, standing in the first row being pushed at all sides for another 4 hours, and I didn't count on how loud everything is when you're exposed to the amps so close - my ears were all blocked up yesterday!
But the concert was amazing, they played a lot more of the older material this time, obviously last year the show was a lot more geared up to promoting the new material.
Feeling a little depressed again over the whole baby affair. The Royal College of Midwives recommends that women have their babies between the ages 21 and 35, after 35, fertility drops dramatically. Well that's all nice and good, but as my PCT refuses to treat me for being too overweight, what can I do? The consultant who wrote to me never even examined me, just looked at the stats. And I know for a fact that the nurse who took the measurements didnt know how to work the BMI calculator as the figures they came up with were overly high, even for me.
So, going back in a couple of weeks to request a new assessment and to find out if I can be treated at another PCT.
Soila is coming for a surprise visit this weekend, that is so lovely. And then, only two weeks til Sophi_e arrives!!!!!! Whoohoo.
I will get to peace for a month, I think. They will want to go everywhere and see everything and I have to arrange it! Should not complain, it will be fun, I'm sure.
Supernatular s4 ends next Sunday. Thank you ITV2, I have been watching it pretty religiously, and now it's ending... not nice.
But oh my word what a finale it promises to be! Sam is full-on demon-boy, Dean has been (we think) duped by Castiel and well, we'll see how it all ends NEXT WEEK!!!!
And I have just found out that s5 has been commissioned, and s6 is up in the air.
Squee!

Still here
..sorry about the delay! Just been a bit manic here, with the job and all.
Hm. Where to start... Well, Sons of Anarchy is brilliant, well into into it now.
Watched the last-ever episode of ER, it was OK though hoped it would have been more of a reunion but hey, still not bad.
Saw Star Trek - fucking awesome! It was just so brilliant. Next one to see will be Terminator - Salvation, it opened this week. Transformers 2 is due to open soon as well...
See what I got from my boss after a week off on holiday:
That's quite sweet actually :)
Next trip home is second week of August, Mila's wedding. Just booked the ticket, it's a minefield! On the face of it, Ryanair would be the cheapest - but then you see the taxes and the surcharges and it's not. They have started charging £5 when you check-in over the internet! It used to be free, to avoid queues at the airport...jeesh. Then there's of course the baggage handling fee (£10 per item per passenger one way, obviously doubled when return)and goodness knows what else. In the end, it's too much hassle so I spent £30 more to fly direct with SAS - although this means I have to go to Heathrow which I try to avoid like the plague...
Sims 3 is out today, I have ordered it, hope it arrived today/tomorrow. Cannot wait to play it, they seem to have redone a lot of it. It's more concentrated in the long-term goals now than in the itty-bitty stuff like comfort. Let you know how it goes when I got it.
