I read too much, and if I don't write it down I'll forget about It...

I watched Despatches this evening..

It was about how Tesco is turning into a bit of a bully(I'm being polite - did you notice?). I rarely believe much of what's on the idiot box, but frankly there wasn't much of anything surprising in the whole hour show.

I've dealt with the supermarkets in the course of my work, and let me tell you there isn't much that's super about them. I won't be at all surprised if Tesco's next move is to try and take on Wal-Mart. It'd be like the old celebrity death match with value beans and 9p noodles.

Time I made good on my threat to get a veggie box from one of the local farm shops me thinks.

King Kong is alive in my town, and is driving a VW Lupo.

I've barely been in my new flat a week, but I've already started to associate the arival of a little green Lupo outdise my door with the stomping, crashing and screaming that come at irregular intervals from the flat upstairs (I almost called the police last night, I thought somone had fallen down the stairs). I don't think I'm a particularly grumpy person; I'll sleep through anything and I expect there to be noise from adjoining flats but the 3am karaoke this morning was just a bit too much.

I'm hoping this was just a one off, but we've had three noisy nights now out of the ten that we have spent there. Each of the noisy nights can be connected with the arrival of King Kong and the Lupo.

Mum refused to let me knock on the door and ask for a bit of quiet, I refused to let her hammer on the ceiling. I hope these parties aren't too frequent, as I'm just as likely to fall out with Mum over how to tackle them as I am to fall out with my new neighbours.

Pants.
