  • So I didn't wear a coat this morning. #
  • Just won dinner bed and breakfast at an Inter-continental hotel of my choice :-) now just need someone to come with me. #
  • 2nd night in a row of horribly interrupted sleep. Anyone got any ideas on good ways to stay asleep once gone? #

  • The Who's Live at Leeds album is soooo awesome. #
