This could get long
Got to the final of the county foil. Lost to that 13 year old again (although she's now 14). Beat one of our girls in the semis. She may never forgive me, given that she beat me in the pools. I always said I was better at longer matches.
I spent most of the time trying to figure out where S got his jeans from, given that they were pretty much the perfect jeans. But then again S also has a BMW (a nice one, I didn't know BMW made nice cars) so I imagine they are far out of my price range.
My Nan was in hospital, or so I have been told, nothing major (well as unmajor as hospital treatment at the age of 86 can be) something to do with her bladder I think. Of course no one told me because they thought I'd worry. I do feel like turning round and pointing out that I actually spend most of my time worrying that the next phone call is them telling me Nan's dead and they didn't tell me she was ill.
Other than that, Phil walked out of another job, his Dad's threatening to throw him out, Mum's put her foot down and said we're not having him. Christmas may well be hell again. I'm probably escaping up to Cumbria for New Years which should prevent murder.
On to media/fandomy matters:
I presently have a copy of Q for the first time in years, just for the Manics. Oh what you do to me boys.
Have read the Survivor Series spoilers
About Finlay rescuing Hornswaggle. Seriously, I will track the footage down and save it because I think that's sweet and lovely (and on a more smark note, counts as remembering continuity).
Also Robin Hood, in the last two episodes
Because oh my goodness they actually gave Guy backstory. And it works, because yes, it's a cliche, but 'poor boy who wants' is at least a character. And oh how he wants. The best of it is that I do think he loves Marian, with a rather terrifying intensity. Also, at the end of last week's episode when he slits Winchester's throat, anyone think he was getting slightly too much pleasure from that?
Of course this means that we now have three parties in play, we have Robin and his gang, the Sheriff and the Black Knights (who are still the stupidest organisation in existance) and then Guy and Alan. It makes for such interesting television.
Also, why am I not inundated with Guy/Alan fic? Possibly for the same reason I lack Sheriff/Guy fics from last season.
Oh but I want to punch Allan so hard. So very hard. He's a God-damned traitor, Robin, why didn't you kill him.
Also, no killing off of Marian's Dad, it's just wrong.
Also, how did I not know that Ridley Scott was a Sir?
