Mostly pics

Life being actually a bit busier than usual, I don't have much time for inspirational LJ entries. A round-up instead.

My parents visited briefly on Thursday, leaving in their wake the usual selection of books etc. (Oxfam bookshop, here I come. Um. Quite soon.) And it's university visits time for Boy. We thought we were going to Reading on Saturday, but rather late on Friday night he picked up his email and realised he was booked into an instructional day at Imperial College instead... so, change of plan, Beast took Boy to Imperial and I trundled down to Bristol *again* to fetch Bun. Who was a bit surprised to see me six hours early. It still being my Boy's Official Birthday on Saturday (17, omg), we went out for a Thai meal.

Coming up in the next fortnight: Bath, Nottingham, York, Surrey and UEA. Reading will have to wait until September. (That's, uh, Reading University, not, um, reading.)

And, because I can, a bunch of icon challenge banners.

Shattered!

Ack! Misery and woe! With a trip to Bath due to start early tomorrow morning, I managed to back my car into a barrier at the car park, and have shattered into two million tiny shards the entire rear windscreen. Augh. I didn't even think I was that close to the wall - though in my defence, it does have three metal bars which angle well forward from the wall, and the joint on the top bar must have been what caused the glass to go BANG.

Meh.

So, trip to Autoglass this evening. :-(
