Ah, you know. One of those days when you wake up early and start getting ready for work. Again. In the dark. With no day off in sight. Tired and jaded. Then you glance at the Internet while slurping your orange juice and suddenly the day is bright and hilarious and filled with people making jokes about the prime minister's liaisons with a dead pig's head. That's all.

Do you know, Minty, you have a bit of an obsession with wasps? I saw one a few days ago. It landed on the outside of the kitchen window while I was washing up and mesmerised me for a good five minutes before it flew away. It was doing funny things with its legs. What I have realised recently is that there have been hardly any mosquitos this year. I've splattered two. Last year it was dozens and I was bitten many times, but this year zero bites. I'm not complaining.

No, I have not played TS4. I'm not sure I ever will. I own it, or so I'm told, as EA gave it me as a gift for helping with Mac queries at Answer HQ, but since I don't have Origin they needn't have bothered.

I'd better go to bed. I have to go back to work soon! But first I shall amaze you with a guessing game. On Thursday I went to the Globe and stopped for dinner at the restaurant, which is on the first floor. Lots of people were standing on millennium bridge, all looking in one direction, so I was looking out of a window to see what was going on. I couldn't, in fact, see what they could see, but I did get a terrible shock at what I could see. Guess what it was?!

(Seeing as last time I asked for guesses I merely bewildered and infuriated, I will tell you right away.) It was a DRONE! Hovering in front of me. This is it. The dystopian nightmare has started. Robots will rise up and enslave us. The apocalypse is nigh. You heard it here first!
