Another goal to Canada! Woo Hoo!! 2-0 now!!! olympics

Yeah!!!!!! Canada scores! Get in there!!!! olympics

Here we go. Canada and America in the Ice Hockey! Come on Canada. olympics

freakshow on top form this evening on 6music. I am so hopeful it isn't taken from me in the future. Sundays just wouldn't be the same.

Just one point behind the tories now according to latest poll which would keep them out if true. http://ping.fm/0s6Gi

Okay. Up late this evening. Time to sleep. Kiss you all!

For some reason the bread didn't rise. It fell into a puddle shape and didn't make any attempt to grow. What a weird shape.

So much to do but getting there. Going out later me thinks. So many restaurants local, hard to make a choice.

Funk and Soul on 6music today, freakshow and @StuartMaconie tomorrow. I love my weekend music. Can't imagine being without 6music.

Kitchen looking respectable. Bread cooking. Bed clothes changed. Stairs now being ironed, clean bedroom and wash bathroom left.

Richard Bacon on 6music shows how good the music is here. No radio1 style playlists here. Better to shut something rubbish like 1xtra.

Have these people done anything world breaking beyond kicking a ball around now and then? Is society owing them something? Where is news?

Now both footballers meet on the pitch and don't shake hands and this is also big news. Have I missed something somewhere?

And that second footballer is aparently agreived. And this is news?

So let me get this right..... a footballer has an affair with another footballer's EX..not current, but EX girlfriend.

Cooking some breakfast, drinking tasty french fresh ground coffee and oggling motorbikes before a day of house work and cleaning.

Sun is shining. Woo Hooo!

Now that's what I want to do, just to see the faces on the staff. http://ping.fm/CJ82j Simply brillant! Respect!

Well Finland can hope for bronze like the womens team in the ice hockey. USA just too fast for them olympics

Yeah! GOAL!!!!! 6-1. At least not a complete pushover olympics

Come on Finland! Score at least one point! olympics

If the Finnish coach isn't beating to within an a cm of their lives with a hockey stick for that show then he must be already dead. olympics

6-0! Still 7 minutes left of the first period. What is this? olympics

5-0 now. Another American goal. Astonishing. FInland where are you? This is crazy! olympics

4-0 now! Is this Finland playing or a group of muppets? olympics

3-0 to America in the ice hockey. Nooooo!!! Only first period. Come on Finland! olympics

But then what about 1xtra? Why is that not being considered for the chop over 6music?

If the magazines were retained then perhaps money for 6music?

So the Torys want to freeze the licence fee and the bbc must get rid of the money making magazines, so reduced income left. 6music

Right. Into the wind and rain and the evil supermarket once again. Must be strong. Mr. Tesco demands many pennies for little produce.

6music costs very little to run in the grand scheme of things and reaches worldwide via the web. It's just shortsighted sillyness to close.

Seems the idea of doing more for less with the bbc is exactly the tory strategy which got the other public services in a mess before.

Time to go to the shops and then spend an evening cleaning my home. I hate housework.

Still irked by the article in the Times today but Murdoch hates the bbc so he'll be happy. The rest of us who love 6music won't.

Oh dear of dear oh dear. Express and Mail both seem to be decending into paradies of each other. http://ping.fm/DQxzQ

Lets see if the mens game can be as exciting as the womens. olympics

Finland wins and takes bronze 3-2 against Sweden. olympics

This is great! http://ping.fm/gF5g9 Well it made me giggle!

Right. Time for a hot bath and some food. Green beans, puy lentils and salad I think will do well.

Eastern European theme to radio3's music tonight. Wonderful emotional stuff.

Noooooooooo!!!!! 2-0 to USA. Switzerland out of the game. America into the semi-finals! olympics

Blmey goals being denied all over! olympics

First goal after 40 mins to America. Come on Switzerland! olympics

Such a very tight goal attempt for the Americans at the olympics. But replay shows no goal at 0 minutes. Very bad luck for them.

Time to get going on my essay about the Common Agricultural Policy. How exiting is that?! :-)

Perhaps it's the degree of isolation from celebrity gossip and press, but why does the BBC state 'Cheryl Cole, the nation's sweetheart'? Who?

Bacchus himself seems to have decended upon my desk and left a mountain of grapes. Many delicious munchies :-)

Lovely vegan bean pate sandwiches on home made granary bread. Delicious.

Strange how some days from the gym I feel broken and dead and others, like today, I could have stayed for 3 and not 2 hours.

Just ordered a HTC HD2. Fortunetly not for me. Windows on a phone? How perverse! ;-)

Blimey! Now that's a dog! http://ping.fm/sptFp

Becoming quite chilly. May call it in for the evening and head for bed.

5-1 to America. No way Sweden can win this one and I suspect they know it. USA to the finals if things continue olympics

browsing ebay to see what goodies may be had. Not intending to buy. Just a little window shopping.

Yeah! At long last Sweden scores! Another 4 and you'll win! :-)

Women's ice hockey tonight at the olympics. USA seem to be thrashing Sweden sadly. Come on fellow Europeans!

Spaghetti, vegimince and tomatoes with wild rocquette and not a drop of oil in sight. Nom Nom.

Widdecombe has resigned too. 3 in a day. Dodgy charity, dodgy claims, breach of confidentiality and changing claims by pratt prattgate

@johnprescott A lot of quite good stuff on here about prattgate. Some clever investigations by amateurs. http://ping.fm/6h3Gh

@johnprescott A lot of quite good stuff on here about prattgate. Some clever investigations by amateurs.

Right. Time for sleep now. Goodnight all!

All over now. 4 - 2 to Russia. olympics

Crumbs! Didn't expect that one. Another Czech goal. olympics

Another goal for Russia! Can't see Czechia catching up now. They may need to plan for the playoff place.

Czechs clearly robbed of the goal. Not a good call olympics

Everybody dives for the goal! Going to need a video replay I think! olympics

2-1 to Russia. What a great goal! olympics

Goal !!!!!! 1 each! olympics

Two Russians in the penalty box. Czechia must be able to draw now? olympics

Russia scores first. What a great game! olympics

Right. Time to watch the Ice Hockey match online at the bbc. Ought to be good. olympics

Russia v Czech Republic ice hockey at the olympics. This ought to be good.

Okra and garlic daal side dish being prepared too.

Also swigging back a great deal of chilled dandilion and burdock with childhood joy.

Just cooked the Ebly wheat for tomorrow's lunchbox salad. Now cooking a delicious brasied tofu curry. Gert lush!

Never thought I would ever hear Britney on 6music. Eclectic music freakshow certainly is!

My error. Wasn't freakshow. Was Jarvis. Very surprised. Still rubbish though. 6music

Come on freakshow, this is a terrible start to the programme. 6music

Blimey. Few bands are as truely awlful as the courteeners. What a waste of 3 minutes. Marketing over substance or did I miss the point?

Nice to have the variety in music. Keeps the last.fm monkies on their guard suggesting new things for me.

Fresh cup of French coffee, a bag of Bombay Mix and Tom Jones on the stereo with sun shining through the blinds. Lazy afternoon.

Wail it out Mr Tom Jones..... oh yes.......

29 albums left until my 1000th. Keep the suggestions coming. 6music

So often you read 'hot' on a product and it's probably seen half a chilli someplace remote and never reaches expectation.

Just had a packet of 'Real Crisps' Jalapeno flavour. Just the right amount of chilli kick for a snack. Good work chaps!

must remember to stay away from supermarkets. Must be strong.

Back fromt the shops. Spent far too much. The dangers of supermarket shopping. Go in for 2 or 3 items. Buy a dozen or so.

Off to the shops with small black cloud above head like a character from Peanuts.

Guess the public is more interested in Eastenders, xfactor, tabloid gossip and tiger woods. Such a crap!

With bank shares in state hands profits come back to state and rewards greater under present system. Better long term rewards?

So much public businesses need to borrow to invest and profits go to shareholders when in Germany and elsewhere it's often reverse.

Few people who bought shares in the 80's still own them. Many sold to make a quick few pounds and the rest ended up owned by bankers.

Tories planning to sell us what we already own again. http://ping.fm/Wa0i5 Who says they have changed? LOL!

Disabled Bastards Wasting Parking Spaces, Says Mail. http://ping.fm/rc0kP Unbelievable!

Just realised out of seed mix for the bread. Damn. Means having to enter the devils own emporium of overpriced produce, a supermarket.

First drum of washing into the machine. Now to make some tasty French coffee and get the bread ingredients together.

Tymoshenko looking publically more and more like a spoilt child who can't get her own way. Pity and a big shame for ukraine.

Very close game between Norway and Switzerland in the Ice Hockey. 4 each and little time left. Tense... olympics

Unpacking my new shirts to remove creases for next week. Tip of the day, hang on hangers on shower rail and let bath steam do the rest :-)

Crumbs! That's got to hurt! Hope she's alright. olympics

Women's super G much more exiting. Super fast women hurling down a hill at warp speed. olympics

Britain v China curling at the olympics. Probably the dullest sport this side of snooker.

Rasing a cup of tasty Lavazza coffee in honour of the man! Memory Eternal!

enjoying cold diet cola. Must be more than a year since I had another. Lovely and chilly.

just realised it's a wine day today. Mmmmmm

Staring longingly at a deluxe caramel shortcake I cannot have. Waagggghhhh

imperial stormtroopers on patrol in Bristol Galleries. Hmmm..

smell of freshly cooked hot cross buns from shop filling my ofactorary senses.

@wshed Ooo...just noticed 'The last station' is on today. Perhaps a small diversion from shopping may be in order? :-)

Just finished the last page of Wu Ch'êng-ên's 'Monkey'. Wish it had been longer. Such a fun book.

More coffee needed.....

Wonder how our ancient ancestors survived re socks? How many millennia went by before an ape decided to shave a sheep and make socks? hmm

Perhaps scientific theory will suggest another? Lost in eddies of time and space to only appear again later?

And socks. Why oh why do I never have enough socks? I buy loads, wash them continuously and yet always short! Mystery for academics?

Need to do some shopping. Well, 'need' isn't quite right, perhaps 'want' is a better word. Shirts, trousers, etc. for work.

Delicious Italian black coffee warming insides on this cold morning. So cold, the cat has fall alseep hanging off bed. Shame to move her.

Somehow I think Medvedev's clean up of police will fail. Too many vested interests in vertical power. http://ping.fm/vdP4Z

Belarus could have drawn equal. Bad call from their bench. olympics

Interesting to see Belarus wearing Soviet style uniforms. olympics

I wonder how many of these pickled green chilies I can eat? It's a giant jar.

Can't see Belarus coming back in this one. Sweden are far too strong olympics

Back from the gym, broken and tired. Watching Sweden and Belarus olympics ice hockey online at bbc. Sweden are winning presently.

Tucking into golden plums which have arrived on mass this morning at my desk. Nom Nom indeed!

Bod! 'aving it large! Get in there!! http://ping.fm/v6UhC

Wooo hoooo!!! Norway scores! olympics

Noooo...another point down. Come on Norway!!

Norway v USA at the Olympics on bbc. Come on Norway! Yeah! You may be down on points, but you can do it!

Astonishing how much food contains oil when you're not supposed to have any. Even a dried wafer has it on the ingredients. Gits!

Amazing to see so much of a typical flight one usually doesn't know about. http://ping.fm/0uQA3

Small collection of fruit just arrived on desk. Tucking into bunch of grapes...nom nom

spotify seems to have taken presidence over 6music on floor stereo. Need to sort out my headphones. I'll miss @laverneshow!

Right. Time to put on the bike gear and head out. Not looking forward to this afternoons snow forcast. Hopefully it'll warm up & just rain.

Bloody bus just pulled away as I turned to get onto it. Now I have to go on the bike when heavy snow is forcast later. Not happy at all.

Already missing cheese. Starting to see brie loafs floating in the air ahead of me.....

Need to slow down on the salad every day. All these many green leaves is playing havoc with my insides. :-(

Just finished off today's left over bulgar wheat salad in some chopped tomatoes. Went down a treat.

Reading about Thatcher and the Bruge speech. Makes my skin crawl...uugghhh

An hour of studies and then sleep. So tired.

What a great street name, http://ping.fm/ry6wr

HUGE bunch of grapes arrived on desk. Now I just need some naked nubian slaves to peel and feed them to me.

Having free fruit delivered everyday means non stop healthy snacking. Nom Nom!

Ah....cherries have arrived....nom nom nom....

Got a weird feeling this next 10 years will be the last. So much stress! Not good for me.

Sometimes I hate IT work. So many people think you have 12 arms and five heads to do everything at once.

French Puy lentils, chopped organic Egyptian green beans, French leafy salad, french plum tomatoes and italian balamic vinegar for supper!

Nom Nom Nom http://ping.fm/uQyMY

George Lamb doesn't seem to come out too well in the report 6music http://ping.fm/7cYZ6

After the complexity of a shirt, is there anything more satisfying than ironing a handkerchief?

Leg seems okay this morning but slight pain still there hovering at the back like Jabba's little helper.

Damn! Hurt hamstring doing situps on ball. Very painful!

I guess if I had best go to the intention when leaving work this evening. To the gym for a couple of hours.

Another Maill anti EU story completly wrong again. I guess it pleases the little islanders who read(?) it. http://ping.fm/jkCjd

Forgot I was supposed to be in Bristol this evening. Hmm...

Woo Hoo! 6music seems safe. I'm expecting celebration songs tomorrow @shaun6music @hawkshow http://ping.fm/BkYAy

Will htc be the only company making windows 7 phones? Most firms seem to have moved on to other things.

Lost my key.....

Have killed my Microsoft bendy keyboard with hot coffee. It seemed to have killed the circuit sheets inside :-( Waaagghhh!!!!

At it again with their false stats. Very much style over substance. http://ping.fm/sUQP0

Ooo.....can't wait! http://ping.fm/5lYu1

From the Murray Walker school of sports commentary I guess.

Love the commentry on bbc,"The ice isn't actually degrading, it's just getting softer"....LOL!!!

Have I ever mentioned how much I love the smell of fresh cooking bread. Mmmm....

Winter olympics on bbc2 is brilliant fun.

Usually run a mile from anything with an England Flag on it, however Badger Beer's "England's Gold" is wonderful stuff.

Yipeee! freakshow on 6music. Can't beleive it's been a week already. Lots of great music to enjoy and buy later :-)

Osborne getting in a complete state once again about Ashcroft's taxes. More they stall, the more they they hide. http://ping.fm/DNMrW

White stilton and fruits...I hardly knew ye...

Goodbye brie....I shall miss you.....

So much cheese! So little time to eat it all! WaaagghhhH!!!!!

George Lamb show on 6music, once good is now a parody of itself. Occasionally painful to listen to.

Agree Ultimate Ears earphones are good but they don't fit my ears so well and the the bose don't block surrounding sound.

My lovely ER6i's were broken and had to buy something. Now getting another pair of er6i's or perhaps some hr5's from etymotic. Trustworthy!

Damn Damn Damn Damn! Should have known better than to buy sony earphones. Always the same problem. Left one dead AGAIN!!

There are few albums I buy at full price, however @massiveattackuk's heligoland is an exception. A long wait but worth it. Stunning!

Need some recommendations for albums to add to collection. Almost at my 1000th. 6music

back home again. Tutorial was fun. Two eurosceptics in the group. They kept their place at the back for fear of the others..LOL!

Almost like a black and white Shag print :-)

Herb Alpert on bbc4 with the hippest groovy sounds. Just need some @drtiki and co. to complete the atmosphere.

Watching 'Monkey' on youtube. Ahh....memories....

Loving the new aperture 3 for my photos. Lots of power to do things. I wonder what adobe have in mind for lightroom?

Cat is lying on my back. It's both an uncomfortable and yet warm and cozy situation at the same time.

I'M COLD!!!! It's 2 degrees outside and I'm shivering as if it's -10! Something not right at all!

Feel so very exhausted. Perhaps that may explain lack of activity. Hot bath I think followed by some supper and bed.

Should be at the gym tonight however I just can't seem to motivate myself. Bad Marky! Very bad Marky!

@johnprescott LOL!!! http://ping.fm/nD3Yc

So very very tired.....

Can drag them over to my Sony Reader too. Good times!

Just noticed the OU have finally put the course books up as PDFs to download and use. At last! No carrying of heavy books around!

I notice Cameron is still avoiding answering questions re Ashcroft's taxes while claiming he stands for clean politics. Typical Tory!

Hahahaha! http://ping.fm/Pb0Sp

Kitteh mabee never saw back 2 teh future! http://ping.fm/dVLYj

Wonder what the education discount is on aperture 3?

Woo Hoo! Aperture 3 just released! Excellent. Feel the need to spend pennies end of the month. Downloading the free trial presently.

Great piece in the guardian today about Lord Ashcroft and Tory weasiling about his tax status. http://ping.fm/OujKv

Fuse gone on bike. Need to to head to Halfords when open. Grrr

Trying to eat a fridge full of cheese in a week.

Have to say, the new massiveattackuk album Heligoland is simply stunning! Brilliant piece of work. Very atmospheric and dark.

Should have enough to pay for a iPad in fivers now. Want to see the face of the man in the shop when he has to count them all :-)

Back from the gym completely broken. Having a large bowl of soup to recover.

Wondering how many grapes one needs to eat to equal one of the five a day?

Scrambled egg on toast, fresh cup of tea and lovely day outside. Things could be good?

Looks like Yanukovych has won in Kyiv the presidency. Let's hope his pro-Moscow politics doesn't match Russia's backward policies.

Lovely roast dinner gone down a treat. Whisky now to relax.

Flash...ah haaaaaa.saviour of the universe......

Enjoying the freakshow with some Abbot Ale. Tasty reward for fairly non productive day.

Nice to the SuperBowl on BBC1 tonight. Was I not working it would be good to revisit past enjoyment of game loved in my youth.

Smell of fresh bread once more filling the house. Mmmmm...

There isn't any evidence the BBC are scrapping 6music beyond an article in the Guardian paraphrased on the Register. save6music.

I was week. Snacking has commenced. Camembert and crackers.

5 degrees outside and yet I am still cold?? Something not right with me someplace. Cup of tea coming up to warm the blood.

Still quite hungry. Must find more filling food to prevent snacking.

Time for some food. Cooking some potato in the oven. Salad at the ready. :-)

34 albums to go before reaching my 1000th. Suggestions on a postcard please.... 6music

Found the 'controversal' Paradise Circus film. Oooo...... blimey! More tea vicar?

Fresh cup of tea before heading to shop for things then studying, housework, gym and at some point, food.

Weeeeeeeee http://ping.fm/xpzPW

Pulled over by police. Accidently missed a red light. Policeman understood and let me go. Phew! They were looking for drink-drivers.

Mmm...lovely bottle of 'Foxes Nob' beer. Got to love these names ;-)

Eaten too much curry. Feel like a beached whale.

Gary Newman and Little Boots on 6music sounds fantasic presently. Not hard to see why I love this radio station so much.

Wouldn't need any ice I guess? http://ping.fm/1KcCE

It's clear the ignorant are those who don't want to understand the scientic evidence and confuse climate and weather.

I can't believe there are still some very stupid people out there who don't think climate change is happening. http://ping.fm/I20Tk

Woo Hoo! New student card has just arrived. 15% off at Apple Store :-) Come on iPad. Yes I know it's just a toy, but I desire :-)

Terrible eye strain in misserable lighting. Need to go home. 45 minutes and counting....

Windows still sucks 7 versions on. Why is everything so littered with text and dialogue buttons?

"this really really really could happen...." Oh yes, sing along.... 6music

Derail Ale from Box Steam Brewery very much on my A list from now on. Bloody Lush, as the locals may say! :-)

Aaarrgghhhh!!!!! Bloody backup routines! Or lack of! Why always the horrible jobs!

Any further corroborating evidence for the report the bbc may shut 6music or is this just tabloid / blog hysteria?

Oh dear. Deliberate or just incompetent? http://ping.fm/HKuoc

How on earth does one change the 'Outlook Today' settings in office2010?

Playing with Microsoft Office 2010. Hmmm...

crumbs! Bowmore certainly has a memorable taste for a 12 year old. I wonder what the older ones taste like! Feeling warmer already!

It's 8 degrees outside and yet I'm shivering. What gives? Somethng not right someplace. Let's see if a dram or two warms me up.

Damn! Another package of bits from the uni. Beginning to get that swamping feeling.

Just sampled Peter Gabriel's new album on iTunes. He's certainly giving radiohead a run for their money on depressing songs.

Good point made well. http://ping.fm/uujsu

Right...time for a hot bath to relax before supper. Planning on fresh pasta tagliatelle with vegimince and spring onion with side salad.

Unwrapped all university materials for this year. Each book and DVD has a European flag upon it. Brings a warming smile to my face :-)

New bottle of whisky unwrapped. Bowmore 12 year old. Nom Nom Nom!

Just purchased the new Erland and the Carnival album from iTunes. Reminds me of Beurit's work. Time for something new from them isn't it?

New Massive Attack single is simply stunning! What a video too! :-)

New iTunes version fixes problem remembering password on purchases. I thought that was just me. Very happy bunny. Downloading now...

BBC says, "Very big rockets might not be needed if spacecraft could be fuelled in orbit" Anyone thought how you supposed to get the fuel there?

Damn shame America has cancelled the moon project. Lacking inovation Obama says. Lacking vision I say of him. Ready China?

Back from the gym. Feeling exhausted. Veggy curry soup to warm the old bones followed by whisky chaser.
