Acquisitions this weekend: The Beautiful South album and “Hawksmoor” arrived, which was nice. The new Frost novel, borrowed from Dad. And Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn. Just when I hit a really busy patch, too. How clever of me. Yes. So much for my evenings and weekends, at any rate.

Got Andrew’s computer more or less sorted, too. Don’t know if it actually has a modem (I can’t be arsed to crawl around and look, because the daft sod has left in such an awkward spot), but I’ve managed to convince it that it does, so we’ll find out at some point, I have no doubt. He’s currently playing this Sims, which I find incomprehensible. Boring, boring game.
