Well, I woke up to the radio warning us of a storm that was stronger than the one that hit London several weeks ago (we’re expecting force 10, rather than force 9). We’re not in it yet – apparently – but you wouldn’t know it from the churning sky or the screaming wind & rattling windows. The walk to work was an interesting challenge – with moving in a coherent fashion pretty much impossible on several occasions, even though I took the slightly more sheltered route; I saw lots of people being thrown off their bikes & the trees thrashing around – though I confess I could only see what was near me due to the rain driving into my face. God only knows what its going to do to the sea-defences, if it hits… Every day, Hilversum seems to have more & more possibilities!

In other news, I am a bad, lazy person, who deserves to be fat. I’ve had real problems getting out of bed these last few days & the problem has been getting worse. Today I got out of bed so late that I didn’t have time to do my morning exercises. I feel fat, bloaty, stupid & lazy and its all my own fault.

Bah.

I am going to try & get up tomorrow morning at a sensible time; ie before 7-30 and actually put effort into trying to be slightly less obese. Of course, this morning I had a warm wife in the bed to snuggle into, which made it extras-especially difficult to get out into the cold, howling weather, but even so. That’s a poor excuse.

On skim-reading other LJ entries, I thank my lucky stars that I am spared the mind-melting drivel that is the current controversy that is Big Brother; I dont know whats happening, I dont want to know whats happening & I couldn't care less that something is happening. If the Big Brother house magically vanished in the night & the company went bankrupt, then it would be a good day for the world.

They are even reports that they are evacuating parts of the city! We’ve had some calls from people who are in Schiphol who are being turned away!

This is not a good sign!
