20/10/05 11:58 amLuch things was great last night. I really wish my sense of smell was up to scratch! Not that's is ever very good, but with a cold I couldn't appreciate the gorgeousness of lush as much as I'd have liked too. The makeover's were fun, and I've now spent £18 on makeup I probably don't need and shall very rarely use, but it's free delivery and all my evening wear is red anyway, so at least it'll match. The eyecream was just soooo pretty! And the lip cream didn't dry out my lips, which makes it fairly unique. I forgot to take the makeup off last night, but it didn't seem to have any ill affects anyway.
Oxtail stew is delicious, we now know, as is chocolate cheesecake (of which Toast got none, coz he was still hiding away in his room not eating). Three cheers to Mike! Starship Troopers is deeply enjoyable trash, with many pretty people involved in sex and violence and cgi, and some really snarky satirism.
Today, we are meant to be having a carpet fitted. By which I mean today, we got a phone call maybe five minutes after two members of the household left for lectures and the other two were still in bed, telling us the fitters weren't coming at lunch time, they were coming in fifteen minutes. Leaped out of bed, got dressed, moved small things. Extablished with Mike that sofas were indeed far bigger than doors. Carpet fitters arrives. Said 'you have to take the carpet up for us, we have eight jobs today, we'll come back if we can', which considerng the landlord's wife had already told them we probably wouldn't be ready, was a bit off.
Since then, we now have a nice concrete floored living room, with one lonely seat in it because we quite like being able to move between rooms, a front hall filled with the other seats (it's been great watching Toast nad Ol get home, open the door and stare) and no carpet fitters. We're waitin for thd landlord to call.
... sounds like the landlord might have just come back. Better go check that out.
