4th July, 2009 - 42 Home Improvements #1

Welcome to the first, in what will be an occasional, sporadic and no doubt highly dull series of blog entries. 42 Home Improvements!

Torpor has set in following our really successful run of the new play “21 Girlfriends” and I find myself languishing too much in front of the telly. You know that you are watching too much of the box when you and your family have invented your own catch phrases that you all say every time on eof the Strictly judges come on:

Len: He’s such a gentleman

Alicia: Away hame you

And so on and so forth. Well. Whilst I have been grounded on the sofa, the house and garden has been gradually falling into a state of decay. Entropy has taken hold. Things have collapsed, broken and fallen into disuse.

So – in an effort to correct this, witness 42 HOME IMPROVEMENTS (one for each year of my life – a rather modest target). And to kick things off, I cut the grass today., No mean achievement, given that I had to flush out a tribe of pygmies and a whole camp of Oxbridge anthropologists in the process.

1 down: 41 to go.
