Sorry for the absence. Funerals tend to make you self-orientated for a while. Sometimes I wish I was more religious, then I could maybe get something out of the funeral process instead of getting pissed off. I don't want to hear about sodding Jesus and his trials on a day like that. I wanna hear about my Aunty and nothing else. Still, bitterness isn't the place for it. So, I shan't go down that rant. It was a horrid day, I suppose, but what else could it be? But still, I have no wish to be depressing, so I shall leave that subject well alone till it cuts less.
Not Really Cutting It
I loved the last two series of Cutting It - it was always a bit bonkers, and entirely romantically complicated. But the opening episode for the new series was beyond ridiculous. Allie's home birth was just stupid - why is calling a doctor is considered unnecessary when your insides are about to burst open with a little person? Not only was it stupid on behalf of the mother, but what about the baby? If there had been any complications the kid would have been screwed. It's a shame they skipped over the cutting of the umbilical cord - which I can only guess was done with a pair of kitchen scissors. Ridiculousness. And of course the other one walking about with her baby mere hours after birth, after screaming the place down. I know - "suspension of reality". But, jeez, it only goes so far. So the new series - unimpressed so far.
Edinburgh
As previously mentioned, got a bit of a thing on at the Edinburgh Festival this year - am planning on booking a place for the last 5 days of the festival, and wanted a show of hands. Some of those among my gossip circle have expressed an interest in joining me up there, so I wanted to get a rough idea of numbers. Let me know if you fancy it.
