(ignore the fact it's phil bloody collins playing the drums)
r.i.p john martyn. i can't think of another more wonderful musician. and so brilliantly odd.

things are quite dull here. still not particularly well but way better than i was. have eaten way too much chocolate. what else, what else...

my new phone arrived today as my old one just very randomly broke yesterday morning for no apparent reason! the new one isn't as pretty but has a really good camera so... it kind of looks a bit james bond actually. ooooer.

one of the things that reinforces the fact i have a highly boring life is is by how excited i get over the small things in life. such as these biscuits...

lookit. aren't they nice? they're BANANA flavoured which is quite amazing! well probably not actually, but one doesn't find banana biscuits terribly often.
i seem to have rather a biscuity thing going on at the moment...

I have absolutely nothing of interest to talk about.

Old, old, old. Well, last year. Seems like a very very long time ago now actually. We went to scatter Nana Wales' ashes... in Wales obviously. I had forgotten how beautiful it was where she used to live. Once when I was little, we were there one Christmas and went for a walk round the hidden valley. I picked up a piece of frozen puddle and was so amazingly proud. But then amazingly upset as it gradually started to melt on the walk home. Another time we found a lamb wandering about in the lane and my mum had to carry it back to the farm. It's such a lovely place.

I've eaten wayyy too much chocolate recently... it's quite bad... but nice. Oh.
Could be time for some Kateness you know...



She gets in a DUSTBIN for goodness sake. Genius.

These are from Norfolk. There's something iffy going on with my slr (apart from the wonky view finder) as everything came out a bit.. blah. Oh well, that can be nice sometimes I guess.

I have backache. It is horrid.

Stuff that's been going on recently...

I watched the Anne Frank thing on bbc1. I thought it was totally brilliant. I kind of thought at first do we need another version but I guess if it introduces it to another generation. The girl annoyed me to begin with because she was so awfully British but I was quite sad when it came to an end and I ended up thinking she was very good. The costumes were lovely too.

I have almost finished my dissertation. I fear it's all crap but I've quite enjoyed it really.

I have been quite ill. How dull. I have this bowel inflammation and it's causing pain in my joints and overwhelming tiredness to the point of being quite useless. It's very frustrating but there isn't a lot they can do except remove the rest of the bowel which is not practical at the moment. Anyway, I don't want to talk about illness because it's tedious.

All three of our clever chickens are laying eggs. Most exciting. Even Mabel has started and we thought it'd take ages because she was all little and seemed to develop slower than the other two. They're so funny, I'd never be without them already. Our cat hates them though, she's so jealous. I think she has a complex about her inability to be a productive and efficient pet. She makes up for it in Princessness however.

I went with my mum to buy a new kettle today (oh my god, what a thrilling life I do lead) and I got this really cute little fascinator from Topshop. It was only £3 as well... bargain. I want to take pictures of it but I look rubbish. Oh well.
