Lazy day yesterday. Saw Hansel and Gretel on TV and thought it was a rocking production. Dr Who was entertaining (as long as you don't spend too long thinking about it). Also caught bits of My Fair Lady, Curse of the Were-Rabbit, and Strictly Come Dancing Xmas Special.
Cooked an organic chicken for lunch which was very nice. Loads left over so will probably be risotto today and some into the freezer/fridge for future use.
Found out that when we go to see my mother in law on Saturday, we are actually staying overnight. (Rob was aware of this but had neglected to inform me.) This adds a minor layer of hassle to the weekend because a) I had meals planned out so as to use up leftovers that need to be rethought and b) am seeing vick on Sunday so now I have to go direct from Yvonne's. I mostly gripe because my MIL lives 10 mins away from a station from which we have a direct train home so I just don't see why we need to stay over. Plus I don't see why seeing her has to take up most of the weekend -- I'd see her far more often if we could just drop in for a couple of hours every other saturday or something.
ok, rant over.
Scored a coup in the sales today: first 3 seasons of BSG plus the miniseries for £30. I actually just wanted season 2 but the box set was cheaper.
