Friday 13th November

Should I enter a blog today, or with it being Friday the 13th should I just hide under the bed and wait for it to pass without incident like normal people do?

Hiding under the bed isn't the most practical solution, but considering my luck lately with flu bugs, work, cars and stroppy sons perhaps I should pay more heed to superstition......

Yeah I'm exaggerating.

Kellys back! Figuritively speaking of course, as physically she still resides approximately 10500 miles away. However, I'm delighted to see her new blog started. Kellys adventures indeed.

A list of what I expect in Kelly's blog over the coming weeks:-
Picture of a kangaroo with boxing gloves on
Traditional Aussie recipes
Confirmation that she will come home to visit sometime...

All else seems rather mundane compared to Kelly's expedition and gradual realisation that she's going to have to learn to swear like an Aussie if she is to fit in, but here go's....

My bug seems to have reached it's zenith, with various fluids of all the colours of the rainbow now escaping from my nose. That's a good thing right? I'm either healing or dying and tempted as I am to don my usual pessimists hat I will instead throw myself in front of the truck of logic and accept I'm getting better.

Which is just as well as the weekend approaches. Karen is coming round for dinner tonight so it's probably a good thing that I'm now unlikely to infect her. Caroles cooking, and she did tell me what but due to my flu-ey brain I can't recall.

On Saturday I'm off to Dunfermline to watch Partick Thistle play. I fully expect a mightily impressive performance from the Jags followed by the wearying constant that we'll likely get beat again.

Luca? He and I haven't really seen eye to eye this week. I am persona non grata right now (Mummy is flavour of the month) and as such have few stories to tell. "No like these beanies Daddy, take them away" and "Noooooooooooooo" seem to be the only words I've been able to extract from him of late.

And I'm sure you're all remembering that Caroles birthday is only a week away now....

**Useless fact of the day - 2008 movie "The Dark Knight" is listed on IMDB (the most reputable film site) as the 9th greatest film of all time ahead of "Goodfellas", "Psycho" et al. But how much time should pass between release and elevation into greatness?**
