Original Fiction at long last!

I wrote a short film script today. A ten minute job, the classic story of the romance between a Window Dresser and a Waiter who never speak to each other verbally due to his Coulrophobia and her severe pollen allergy. Miscommunication and Misunderstandings abound. With Hilarious Consequences.

Not sure what I'd ever do with it, I just had it pop into my head after a dream and I had to write it down. It could conceivably be filmed in Canters, but I doubt I'd ever get round to doing it.

Still - it's an orginal story - turns out I *can* still write them after all!

(no subject)

Firstly, two Baby related stories...

1st up - BOLLOCKS! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6192247.stm We have been trying so hard to be original-without-being-stupid on baby names and we really liked Olivia, but neither of us want her to be one of five Olivias in her class, so the name might now need ANOTHER rethink.

2nd, this http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/6197411.stm has made me woried and angry in fairly equal measures. Yep, that's the hospital where I'm booked to have McFly. I know the chances of me being there and Babe needing help from a machine at the same time as a power failure *and* it happening at the same time that some twatferret has decided they need the copper out of the emergency generator wiring more than the hospital does aren't that high, esp since Babe is now fully cooked, but still, the PregnaRage is out in force for these cocknockers yet again. I reckon if they catch them, the best punishment would be to leave them in a room with thirty-odd irate pregnant women. Then they will know the meaning of fear.

And a nice idea from demimonde...

UNSOLVED MYSTERIES

Why, whenever I've been out clubbing (admittedly, it's been a while) do/did I always wake up with filthy fingernails? What had I been doing?

Where the Hell did my Red Dwarf and Eddie Izzard videos go? - Loads of my treasured teenage posessions went missing during my parents split (even though many completely pointless things were kept) but the ones that really bug me are my Izzard videos of The Definitive Article, Glorious and Unrepeatable (think that was what the 1st one was called) since, as I knew them pretty much by heart when I went to Uni I didn't see the point in spending £20 each replacing them.

How did Keynes College Breakfasts always manage to be cold even if you were there when they opened at 8?

What happened to my nice 60s style sunglasses back in 97? I think I left them in the Ladies' before Opera rehearsal but I checked in there about a minute after I'd been in... the only explanation possible is a super-fast sunglasses thief. This is why I never bother getting expensive sunnies - I break/lose about one pair a year.

Along a similar vein, what the fuck happened to my last pair of pink Gummi headphones? I destroyed a couple of pairs by catching them in doors/trailing them on the floor, but the last pair just vanished. I also never buy expensive headphones, since I kill them all.

Why have all of my socks decided to spring holes *now*? It's like there's a mass suicide pact going on in my sock drawer!
