With television full of changed schedules on Friday night we watched a couple of the biographies of Michael Jackson and pretty grim they were too with plenty of comments on the sex scandal charges and on his horrendous addiction to plastic surgery but then there was Channel 4 that stood out like a beacon. No lurid tabloid gossip, no snickering at the mess that he had become. No. Someone at Channel 4 made a decision (and a bloody brilliant one too) to simply string together an hour's worth of his best music videos and run a ticker tape along the bottom with some salient words such as "This was the most expensive video, this album came in at number one etc etc etc" and let us savour the reason why every newspaper, every news bulletin and every channel was covering little else. Hat's off to four. You even managed to bring a tear to these cold and unemotional eyes.
Today's final offer in our June month of daily deals is 50% off every unit that we have in our current ex-demo stock. We have managed to build up a fair number of boilers that have been returned following loan on exhibitions or use in trial kitchens, reclaimed from bankrupt customers or suffered minor transit damage.We have no real outlet for these items. Most are in new or nearly new condition and we can offer them at 50% off the (already discounted) prices that you will find by clicking HERE
Now that Jenny and Craig are back from their fortnight's holiday looking tanned and relaxed we have got to get down to deciding upon Natalie's replacement. We hope to have a decision by tomorrow so will be letting the lucky (or not so lucky maybe) applicant know very soon.
I am getting nowhere with the groin strain that has been troubling me for months now. It's easing ever so slightly but I am hobbling like an old man and have not been able to swim or play football since the first week of May. I've booked an appointment with a specialist this afternoon and maybe she will be able to advise me how to get it better. I don't want to raise my hopes too much but it is really starting to get me down.
It looks like the Toyota Prius is going to be the choice ahead of the Honda Insight. The deal clincher is the sun roof. The new Prius has a solar panelled sun roof as an option whereas the Insight has no sun roof option at all. The big problem is that the new Prius is not out yet so there are none of the super deals that I was expecting in these recessionary times. I was half expecting a buy one get one free offer such is the doom and gloom in the motor industry but no such luck. Even the APR on the deals that Toyota are offering at 10.5% is not exactly attractive. Another snag is that as they don't have one in the showroom yet I'll be buying blind.
Maybe I'll just go for one of these little numbers.
