Mum and stepdad indeed came down yesterday. It seems every time they come the sun comes out so keep coming you two!! Had a lovely day, nothing hectic. Lunch at Canary Wharf, chat at mine and then a walk down Oxford Street.

Went to Carolyn's today and she helped me clean the car. I don't think she quite knew what to expect though. With me, washing a car is not just a case of sponging it down. Wash, cleanse, buff, wax, buff, detail, interior. A good 2 or 3 hour job. I took her out for lunch and to the cinema as a reward. We went to see Ring 2. Not as bad as I thought it would be and still damn scary!!

Found this article which made me chuckle. I know for a fact it is true. Ask any of my monkeys and they will tell you when they are happy and no mistake.

Lastly, the Pope died. I wasn't a huge fan of this Pope to be honest. I know his did his bit for the Solidarity movement which eventually led to the downfall of Communism in Russia, it was more his views on things like contraception to be honest. In this day and age you cannot be telling a country like Mexico not to use contraception, which he did and after which HIV rates shot up. The whole Vatican is a very antiquated system in my opinion. However, as Chris pointed out yesterday we like in a democracy so I am free to voice my opinion. :o)
