Today I had nothing to blog about. Well, I had this vague idea about whinging about the Ranger’s supporters who are all over the place but it didn’t seem fair to put them down after their crushing defeat.
I had come home to put more photos of Scouts together in an interesting way after a perfectly pleasant but fairly unremarkable day at work and had… nothing.
Then about an hour ago as I was starting to consider a meme, Mum, as she was going to bed, says, "Oh a parcel arrived for you yesterday - it’s on the sideboard, did you see it?"
So like a kid on Christmas morning I rushed over and picked it up and became instantly confused. Amazon? I hadn’t ordered anything from Amazon in ages. The last thing was Jeeves & Wooster and that was… no idea when…
So I opened it carefully like I was at work and an unexpected heavy thing had been delivered to us - full of trepidation and that raw skein of excitement that runs through you when you are not sure if horror or joy is the next thing you will feel.
But it was joy! Mixed with utter confusion. Where had this magnificence come from?
The man they call Moobs who is (by the way) running his Tenuous Connections competition again.
I don’t know why and I don’t know what to say. This was such a lovely and a complete surprise.
Thank you so very much. You have no idea how wonderful this is.

The man’s a legend. I don’t suppose you’ll be drooling over Jennifer Morrison.

Really? I did not see that coming. I figured probably Jesse Spencer, maybe Hugh Laurie in ‘rugged’ mode or possibly Omar Epps, but not RSL.

yorksdevil - Hugh Laurie is beautiful but I keep seeing him singing Minnie the Moocher in Jeeves and Wooster and then all I want to do is laugh. My RSL love affair comes from the days of Branagh’s Much Ado About Nothing. Oh dear sweet lord, my melodramatic teenage heart leapt for him!
