I am easily pleased. I have been looking at my blue fleece with a sense of pride and admiration since I... wait for it... washed it. I have had it an awfully long time never to have stuck it in the washing machine, but it went in on Sunday night. It came out virtually dry, dried overnight and has a lustre I don't remember it ever having had in the past. Perhaps there's something in the washing powder.

As an encore, I've put my light-coloured coat into the machine this morning. Hopefully it will emerge looking like less of a dirty mac than it went in.

A DVD arrived for me this morning. This contains the complete works, TV and Radio, of the double-act Lee and Herring. While many of the radio broadcasts can be downloaded from FistOfFun.net, this DVD represents quite a lot of material that is not available elsewhere. Conveniently packaged on a single DVD-R by one of their fans, making a fast buck for himself, no doubt, I reckon there's entertainment a-plenty there for me. I saw a lot of their work in the mid-90's when it was released, but not all of it. So, it will both bring back memories and create new ones. Hurrah!

Easily pleased!
