In fact, I'm thinking of having another one just to get some time off.

In fact right now he's cooking the dinner while I'm upstairs 'keeping an eye on the baby' - for which read 'commenting on blogs'.<BR/><BR/>The baby is fine, though, I hasten to add. She's currently sleeping angelically in her cot, dreaming of the day when she has a blog of her own in which to recount the embarrassing things her parents do.patroclushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933476561340044351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10831518.post-57627107914469359122008-09-29T16:54:00.000+01:002008-09-29T16:54:00.000+01:00What is Patroclus doing commenting on this blog, s...What is Patroclus doing commenting on this blog, she only had a baby five seconds ago!

I watched a documentary about music in films and it's surprising how flat a high-action scene can appear without the music. Try watching a James Bond film with the sound muted and the subtitles on.
