Yesterday, we watched the entire fifth series of Peep Show in one go. It had been a few months since we watched the first four and I had forgotten how incredibly hilarious that show is.
Find a way to watch it and do so.

Oh dear God yes. Peep Show has been the best thing on British TV for the last few years, even if the last series was a touch OTT for me. It seemed like the characters (Jez especially) had become shadows of their former selves, and became involved with increasingly bizarre scenarios.
There seemed to be a lack of comeuppance to some extent, of just desserts. Jez was willingly destructive towards Mark’s life and his own, yet Mark did very little to combat this. In earlier series, there were occasions when Mark snapped and showed his resentment towards Jez’s actions, but in the most recent series there was an element of resignation, save for the episode when he controlled Jez’s money for a little while.
Having said that, the recent series was still funnier than anything else in the last few months, and is definitely worth watching.

With a friend at your side no road seems too long
A Japanese proverb, according to the birthday card I just bought for a friend of mine.
She’s the ex-girlfriend with the eating issues, which I think I mentioned here a while ago. I find it quite difficult to be as supportive as I should be of her, as she lives miles away, and it’s been a year since we finished.
I called the other day for a good chat, but you could still tell that things were a touch awkward. It’s her birthday this week, and I intend to write her a big long letter inside the card about everything between us.

We were up early enough on the Saturday for sunrise.

Our boat was pretty much the same as this one, size-wise. Not small, and apparently about 38 feet in length.
