There is a road around here which seems to be killing peopl at an alarmingly regular pace. Every year there are 2-3 fatal car crashes on that road, and every year the local papers print more pictures of ghastly car wreckages. I'm seriously entertaining the possibility that the road is cursed, or that it lies across some leyline that's carrying some seriously bad mojo. There is also the possibility that the victims were all taught by Skene.

That was in poor taste. Plus Skene is a fine instructor. I dunno why I've been fixated with that particular piece of news, it just seems to compel me in the most dark ways.

Today at the aquarium was... Interesting. My day began with two busloads of Brownies and Crinkleys (tee hee), before progressing to office politics between the Dive Team and thier out-of-tank compartiots. Being a neutral volunteer, I was mercifully spared the conflict or forced to take sides. However, sqabbles were later put aside due to a medical emergency, whic hwas well handled by all, but superbly so by Barbra. Her already fairly good standing in my estimations has shot up by several gazillion points after her selfless alturisim today. Needless to day, ther world is a better place for people like Barbra.

My brothers are away to Greenock this weekend due to some scout thingmiebob, tha the house is massivly peaceful and stress-free. If what I feel now is any indication of the liberation of Uni, then by god, I'm going to love it.

Tomorrow I'm going to reformat the computer, so if I should fail to back some crucial driver and the machine goes kaput, you will be able to guess why I'm not posting anymore.

Also, inside information for life: When sprey-painting, use a bin liner or similar polythene sheet in the place of newspaper for masking purposes. you can leave the painted object on it for as long as you like without fear ripped paper cementing itself to your otherwise fine paint job.
ADDENDUM:
Just found out that The Handosome Family (the best band in existance) are touring the UK again in November, Must book tickets.
