Hurrah! People have actually commented on my first posting. It works!

I am back at work today after three weeks off, and I am having mixed emotions about it. Is it wrong to enjoy large doses of daytime telly? Is there an episode of Place in the Sun or Homes under the Hammer that I haven't seen? Will I survive without the wisdom and insight of Jeremy Kyle on a daily basis? These are the questions with which I struggle as I get up to date with my work emails.

I can tell this is going to be a deeply intellectual blog....

Hello, and welcome to my first ever blog. It turned out to be much easier than I thought, but whether I'll ever say anything interesting remains to be seen.

I have been prompted to start this blog because I have just managed to sit through The Da Vinci Crud without leaving and I'm rather proud of myself. Having a beer in the sun would have been so much more pleasurable, but sometimes you have to suffer for a few hours in order to take the moral high ground later...

Yes, it really was as crud as I was expecting. The only saving grace was Sir Ian's skill at maintaining a semblence of character realisation whilst plainly revelling in the knowledge of just how poor the script, production and general quality of acting was. God bless 'im!

All for now. Speak soon,
Janet
