It's better in real life...
Sep. 24th, 2004 06:18 pm...but it's fun nonetheless
Very frustrating game... my hand-eye coordination isn't good enough for this one; which is logical if you think I'm a) mousing with left and b) RSIsh.
In other news, nothing certain about the Halloween trip yet, in the sense that I haven't booked anything yet; it's all gone a bit pricey. Cheapest option is Eindhoven-Stanstead but that does involve flying back at 6:45 on monday morning, which I am guessing is public-transport-technically impossible. Not much more expensive is flying back on monday evening, but that means I'm at large the whole monday, probably on my own and with luggage - worse, without money to do anything much fun, though I suppose I could do the museums. The British Museum's Egyptian Collection (not to mention the reading room!) might prove inspirational for my desert-based story... I saw some good books on the desert peoples there last time but did not have time to dig in.
...warming up to that idea...
Hmmm...
I do always want to spend tons of money in the museum shop... they have SUCH pretty things! Not to mention all the books!
Does anyone know if one can leave a backpack or something at the reception desk? Or don't they do that kind of thing anymore with terrorist safety measures etc?
One advantage of returning on monday is that an O-bar/Satsuma reunion trip becomes optional... if I do decide to this I shall ring Chris and Sarah to see if they are game...
*muses*
