Domestic woe

[louiselux]

Dave the plumber came round to fix the cistern leak this morning. He's a good plumber, but taciturn to the point of freakishness. In a whole hour he said  'hello,' 'can I use this bucket?' and 'bye'.  I spent the rest of the morning mopping the floor and cleaning up.

Adventures in home baking this evening: my lemon thins were a disaster: too sweet, not lemony enough, greasy and burnt. There probably wasn't anything else I could do to them to make them worse. But I still ate two in an effort to prove to myself it hadn't been a complete waste of time. Feel sick.

Hey, raised the locale Animate for Saiyuki goodies. There wasn't much, but it's on its way. I stuck in a copy of the Reload manga as well, and asked them to let me know when Gaiden's coming in. No dounjinshi, unfortunately, (well, one, but it was Hakkai/Goku and the art was kind of ugly) but I will be going down to Tokyo at the end of the month, where there are masses of dounjisnhi stores and a huge Animate.

In exchange, can I put a request in for crisps (salt & vinegar and prawn cocktail) and ginger biscuits. Preferably sent to my wok address:

No rush-- I still have my precious stash of ginger biscuits brought over from Christmas.

Oh, you are awesome, thank you so much! I'm v excited about seeing the Reload manga and also that Gaiden is coming into book format-- and any good doujinshi would be *very* much appreciated.

Expect supplies of essential British foods soon:)
