I saw this trailer and got very excited about the film and watching it with Toby. Maybe he’ll be into robotics or astronomy?!
I was never into Garfield much, I was more in Peanuts or Asterix or Tintin.
But I’ve certainly become a fan of Garfield Minus Garfield. Here’s the blurb and a few of my favourites:
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.
Mary-Lou and I went for another scan yesterday and another meeting with the consultant where a cesearean was booked for the 1st April at 9am!
We’re both feeling excited and relieved that we now know the date and that it was the date we wanted.
In 10 days we’ll have Toby! We’ve already got the Nursery ready for him and Mary-Lou finished work yesterday so is now washing all the baby clothes we have bought and have been given. It’s becoming more real!
I think I’ll get nervous about the operation and whether Toby will survive over the weekend before he arrives. But at the moment I’m too busy with work to let those fears sink in.
36 weeks, Baby-proofing Your Marriage, A friends response to Amy’s stillbirth, Mary-Lou not sleeping well, day-dreams.

A stolen car crashed into our neighbours car today, just 30 seconds before I turned into our road. I was coming back from town and saw a Police lady running out of our road and round the corner and I wondered why she was running out of our street. I turned the corner and saw the above scene!
The Dungeymobile was damaged because my neighbours car got rammed into it, smashing the headlight and damaging the radiator.
They caught the driver who had stolen the car after burgling a house earlier today. The police said they turned around to follow him because he wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, then he sped away, they chased, then he crashed on our road.
I went to a Homewatch meeting on Tuesday night where the Police pointed out the burglaries were down in Moss Side over the last few months, but anti-social crime was up dramatically. So it was a bit wierd to see such crime so soon and on my doorstep. One of the Police ladies at the meeting was actually at the scene today and said hello which was a bit awkward.
If burglaring a house, stealing a car and crashing it into another car isn’t anti-social, I don’t know what is.
