Here's me banging on about mayonnaise and avoiding it, and then it turns out to be quite a substance, responsible even for theories of the universe.

It's now 18:41 and I'm in the office. This is no surprise to me. I've been here before at this time and I think I'll find myself here late quite often. I'm not actually working, it's just that I have something to do after work, which would put me in an awful rush if I decided to go home first. This time I have been prepared. I bought a nice healthy chicken curry thing from M&S and some plums. I'll confess to having eaten more plums than I was planning, but they were very nice, so it's my prerogative.

I've been noticing how cold it is recently. I have a few theories about why this may be:

1. It's winter and a cold one
2. My heating is not working as well as it ought to
3. There's a secret hole somewhere in the house letting heat out
4. I'm no longer as insulated as I'm used to being

I suspect this last one is the real answer. I was even quite chilly walking near the fridges in Asda yesterday.

I bought a new coat today. My existing coat is far too red (well, "Salsa") for my taste and is also a size too large. So, once it is delivered, I shall be the proud owner of its smaller and navy counterpart. I nearly paid £5 more in M&S for a coat until I realised that it didn't have zipped pockets... you HAVE TO HAVE ZIPPED POCKETS on a fleece.

I know this is a rather dull entry to a blog. I could spice it up by mentioning that I saw The Fast Show Live last night and Return To The Forbidden Planet on Saturday night - both of which were fantastic. But I'll not bother.
