Scribblings from the Mitchy Side

The football was good - Stevenage v. Spurs in the 5th round of the FA Cup. I say "good", I mean that in the sense Stevenage forced a replay after holding Spurs to a 0-0 draw. The game itself wasn't anything to write home about, in fact it was pretty dire. But that was partly down to Stevenage refusing to let Spurs get settled and play their kind of football. Replay will be at White Hart Lane and I suspect it will be a very different kettle of fish there.

I've spent most of today reading. I'm on a real Sherlock Holmes kick at the moment and discovered, to my joy, that The Complete Collection Kindle edition was available for the princely sum of 0.77p. "I'll have that!" I cried, clicketty clicking happily. Right now I'm reading "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" and the first story in that collection, "Silver Blaze". That story is not only one of my faves but it gave us one of the best Sherlock Holmes quotes:-

"Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"
"To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."
"The dog did nothing in the night-time."
"That was the curious incident," remarked Sherlock Holmes.

Hee! :)

First the non-spoiler review:

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
*bounce bounce bounce bounce*

Matt Damon is a Tiny God and I want to be like Pamela Landy when I grow up.

SQUEEEEE!!

*cough* OK, enough of that. ( The Spoilery Stuff )

Janey and I had a lovely evening and both came out of the cinema grinning like loons. We luvs the Bourne, we does ;) We celebrated by scoffing McDonalds goodies - hey! You get a free coke cola glass with ever large meal! Hee! *petses her new glass* The only minor annoyance was I managed to really bang/scrape my shoulder on a metal bracket thing that was on the pillar next to my seat and it hurts. *whines* I wouldn't mind so much if I had a spectacular bruise to show for it but I don't! *pouts* So mean!

In other news, work is bimbling along and the boredom issues has been cured by my discovering several books on Project Gutenberg that have been sneaked onto a cd for my reading pleasure. I'd forgotten how much fun Sherlock Holmes stories were :D Come, Watson! The game's afoot!
