Valentines Day
Well Valentines evening was fun. Not the actual day, that was work as normal but I / we have a very nice evening afterwards.
The evening involved a couple of cute, and very fluffy movies surrounded by food. We started with raw oysters and half of a Chorizo Fougasse bread. Followed by watching Love Actually. Then main course, Steak, chips, asparagus, and cheesy cooked oysters. Followed by Notting Hill, and last but not least were strawberries covered in melted chocolate, with meringues and ice cream.
Books, well I must admit to curling up on the sofa when not eating in the evening and not touching a page of a book. I did put some books on my new bookshelf at lunchtime when I dashed home from work.
OK. I would have added photographs, except for the fact that when I click on the images link on the bar above it comes up with an error page not found!! I really should sort out a flickr account and just link to the images on there.

Another Bookshelf plus Doctor Who confession.
Well we now have yet another Ikea Billy bookshelf.
I've just about run out of space to put bookshelves but we have managed to squeeze another one in. So, downstairs we have 4 x 80cm bookshelves, each with six shelves full of hardbacks. In the spare room upstairs there are now 5 x 80cm and 1 x 40cm bookshelves. At least half of the Bookshelves upstairs have had 4 or 5 extra shelves put into them to put in extra paperbacks, so finally I have room for all my books.
I have also spent a lot of time this weekend listening to the audiobook of Pushing Ice by Alastair Reynolds read by John Lee. A good book, one of my favourites, so listening to it has been good fun.
EDIT: My mistake, one of the bookshelves downstairs does not have hardbacks on. It's got my Doctor Who collection on it, virtually every story on audio cd's, video's, laser discs, DVD's and Blu-Ray. As well as all the BBC EDA and PDa books, no room for my target books, or the few Virgin books I have.
