Jan. 8th, 2004 01:56 pmMy constant Radio 1 consumption has apparently become too much for Raj, and he has taken the opportunity of his recent battery change (which lost my presets) to take a stand. He is currently refusing to stop scanning for radio stations at the top end of the FM dial (about 95 and above). I can tune him in manually, but the buttons take a serious amount of pushing and I go through a lot of different Radio 1 areas commuting to work, so a lot of the time I just let him have his way. His station of choice appears to be Radio 2, which I suppose is tolerable, or would be if the presenters weren't so damn smug all the time. At least they play some decent tunes.
In other news, today in Morrison's (shopping for lunch - a sandwich and some crisps) I managed to spend upwards of fifty pounds (about US$75). I couldn't help it, there was a sale. Alright, most of it was spent on non-sale DVDs, but most of them were triple packs and very cheap anyway. And most of those were ones I have been meaning to buy/watch but have put off due to expense. So I now own Austin Powers I (meant to buy), Dude! Where's My Car? (meant to see), Kung Pow: Enter The Fist (have been recommended), Fifth Element (REALLY meant to buy), The Abyss (meant to see) and Aliens (enjoy and don't mind buying to get the other two movies). Oh, also bought Shanghai Knights (because Owen Wilson and Jackie Chan) and I-Spy (because it was on sale, and because Owen Wilson). There were also a couple of low-spec PC games and some tapes for the car (ha ha, that'll teach him), but they were seriously reduced and cost less than six pounds all together.
So. My place for DVDs some time this weekend?
