New stuff...

[ffutures]

Woken by the doorbell at 7.15, leaped out of bed (and pulled a muscle so badly I'm still limping), staggered down and got the new Harry Potter from the postman. About which I will only say that it is pretty good so far, starts at a gallop and sustains it. Look elsewhere for spoilers.

About ten minutes ago the bell rang - another postman, this time with Dead Like Me S2 (Region 1 and VERY cheap from playusa.com) and Constantine, the region 3 release which is about half the price of region 2.

Some days I quite like the internet...

Actually he seemed quite cheerful - I suspect that a lot of people are getting paid overtime today. As I said, it was a separate delivery from the main post.

As a postman I assure you the separate delivery is a definite. With the sheer amount of weight per book, there was no way that most offices weren't going to just give them all to a couple of people to deliever the whole lot with the aid of a van. :D

Funniest thing was last night - watching all the managers having to sort them because we peons obviously could not be trusted. :D

Ah, so they probably laid on special Potter-postmen. That's quite charming actually, I bet they had many wonderful encounters with excited children on doorsteps.

And now, back to my regularly scheduled programme of bitter cynicism.

I'm fairly sure I have some bitter and twisted Death Eater postmen in my office, so logically there must be a counterbalance somewhere...
