It
was really cold this morning, so I tried to cheer myself by having a look at
the online weather forecast to see if Spring would be making a reappearance
soon. The outlook for every day of the next two weeks is "covered by cloud,
with highs of 9 degrees". That's it. British typicality for the next
fortnight. No wonder I keep looking at holiday homes in Majorca.
The dog hasn't been mentioned for a day or two, which is a relief. It probably
means that Philippa has already bought one and just hasn't told me yet. I'll
probably come home from work one day to find an 8-week-old cockapoo in the
kitchen. God, I hope not.
I've been watching "Under the Banner of Heaven" on Disney+. It's the
story of a murder that occurred in Utah in the 1980s, which was committed by
members of the Mormon church. Interesting, but very slow-paced, and a bit
clunky. It could have been 5 episodes instead of 7 and you would still have got
the whole story without missing out any key bits. I'm quite tempted to buy the
book it was based on now, as the original (true) case looks quite intriguing,
and was no doubt fictionalised extravagantly for the purposes of American television.
That'll do for now. As you can probably tell, I don't have much to keep me
occupied at work today....
