Saturday Night

Its Saturday night, and all over the UK people are out enjoying themselves. I, however, am sat on the sofa with the cat, blogging on my laptop and watching the highlights of West Ham v Fulham on Sky Sports. I can think of more exciting ways of spending a Saturday night, to be honest. But I shouldn't grumble - last Saturday, we went out to the pictures, ate fish and chips in the car and didn't get home until quarter to eleven. It felt very daring, edgy even.

We've signed up with a babysitting service and its very good, even if we've only used it twice in about three months; a new year's resolution is to go out together much more, and as its Doug's birthday in a fortnight, we're starting as we mean to go on. Its not too bad if you go out for a meal in town and a few drinks - you spend enough that it feels economical to get a sitter in. However, if you just go to the cinema, it actually costs you twice the cost of the cinema tickets to pay for the sitter -£36 for the pair of us to see Casino Royale. Almost as expensive as going to see it in London :-)

And on that note, here is an entirely unnecessary and gratuitous photo of Daniel Craig in his trunks:-



You don't get many of those to the pound.
