Rogerland lol! I love that idea      ....Umm I'm hanging in thanks, going through one of my insomnia bouts [ or waking up after 3 or 4 hours more precisely ]. It'll pass.

Hope all your stuffs arrive without hassle  Aww, indeed, the expense of starting up a home... ouch. 

Ah... read it out? Day dream? Shift uncomfortably because apparently beds are terrible places to be if you aren't asleep? Not fun. Hope it passes quick as it can. *sends sheep to count*

Me too. *fingers crossed*

Indeed, the advice is to get out of bed for a bit. R5L helps . You have patchy sleep too don't you? *nods at fellow sufferer*

Waiting for deliveries is a pain. ASOIAF.... good idea to pass the time. Oh! Tomorrow is the S.6 opener ... Yay!

Yeah. I'm not a great sleeper, but kind of sometimes self-inflicted.

I sat in that house from 7am to 7pm... Last on the delivery list. That's what happens when you're too tight to pay for specific delivery timeslots. *nods*

ASOIAF helps. I'm not so much looking forward to GOT this year, as I am the essays on Tumblr. GOT hasn't been ASOIAF for a while now... and if that leaked episode is true, it's getting worse.

Last... jeez, typical. 

Season 5 was a let down i.m.o. so that doesn't sound too promising.

Have you seen it yet? What did you think?

 Not bad? I'm just glad to see Tyrion and Varys back. And also, Brienne doing her valiant thing. What did you think of it?

Was the end a deliberate in-joke I wonder???... teenage boys getting ready for another G.O.T. perv-in then... ewww  reverse reverse!!! 

I'm not so positive about it. Dorne was just completely illogical ("How shall we avenge father's death?" "Kill off his entire house?" "Sounds good"), Brienne isn't supposed to be an unstoppable killing machine...

I liked Edd. He's not Dolorous, he's snarky, but he's still likeable. I liked the Sansa/Theon hug, they grew up together... Although, I did miss Mance in that storyline.  Ghost was pretty. That was good.

Mel... GRRM has dropped the old hints a time or two... Only unsullied weren't expecting it... They just created a problem with their need to have Mel strip off at the drop of a hat (which she doesn't do in the book either... nor does she make advances on young men), they've shown her umpteen times without that blooming choker... Continuity!

Good points all *nods*

Yes! Theon was very sweet, and brave too. Dorne ... meh. Their world seemed so unconvincing and underwritten in the show. [ books were different, I know from reading the Guardian blog + btl comments ].

Still glad its back...I love Varys. His expressions are priceless.

Varys' eye rolls are the stuff of legends. *nods*

I'm mostly just waiting for the Winds of Winter (Hurry, George!). I wonder things... like will Rickon get POV chapters now? What'll happen to Pypar and Grenn since they died last season in a battle they survived... Grenn took someone else's place, but Pypar was random. Is my faith in Dolorous Edd naivety? Is Penny Tyrion's kid as is theorised?

So many questions!

Intriguing *nods* Yes George... hurry up!!!!

It feels similar, waiting for Hilary Mantel to complete her Thomas Cromwell trilogy. I long to go back into that world, but dread it, because the painful end is coming. 

Anyhoooo.... how are things going, with your flat?  

Cooker's coming on Saturday... I just need people to help shift furniture.

Sounds like things are progressing well  Hope you can enlist some help for furniture moving xx

Thursday. Moving Thursday. Huzzah.

Spending Wednesday night on the sofa, because I need to remove part of the bed frame before I go to work, cause otherwise it can't get out the door. Decided I hate the card meters... I'm going to forget so often.

Hamster may be happening too. Hamster. *nods*

Hamster  awww ... where you getting him from?

Not long now... oooh the excitement 

Hello. I am sending this through my very own spiffy wifi. Which considering it's about 50mps slower than the one I had before, firefox seems to be skipping merrily on at a great pace... smooth as you like.

A woman in my work's daughter is giving hers up to a good home, only a couple of months old... She asked if I would like it (it's a small caged animal and the housing only want to know, in writing, if you are getting a cat or dog. Easier). So, hamster.

Can't wait until all this is finished though. Then we shall have better things to talk about... like Eurovision... or cartoons... or the fact that Ser Pounce is the greatest character in ASOIAF. *nods*

PS. I think the gulls are nesting above my head. Going to be noisy in a few weeks.

Excellent! *waves at Hitch in her new flat*  Awww its kind of you to take a wee homeless hammy in.  Will you re-name it?

No worries. Getting your own home is big stuffs!  Just think... you can have your dinner whenever you like!!!  To hell with it - you can go out without a coat! 

Bad luck about the gulls. They make a bleedin' racket its true   

I don't mind the gulls, would be nice to see them though.

I don't know if she has a name already, I imagine I will. I have plenty of potential pet names, but they're mostly male... I'll have to see the character of said hamster.

Yeah... the pots will be clean when I need them! Imagine!

Hope your cooker got delivered ok.  Aww, a wee girl hammy  Have you met her yet?

Did you read about Chris Packham, he's been in the news. Was unaware he'd had such a difficult time personally, or that he had aspergers. Although looking back, it makes sense. He seems normal to me, just deliciously eccentric !

Yeah, I saw something in the Sunday Post today. Aspergers makes a lot of sense, I'm glad he's still around.

Not yet. I have been told she's used to be handled and is coming with a pink ball.
