Found myself an instant hot drink do-it-all machine at my local supermarket on the way into town. Fantastic really - I know I sound a little eccentric here but just being able to stroll into town with the option of whipping together a hot choco or a coffee is cool. The more I write this the more excited I feel and the more aware I am of how silly that is. Oh well, what can I say I love a good hot drink - even better when it's self serve.

Coffee? Yes, please.

Interesting times as I found out yesterday or maybe the day before that Noel from Oasis decided that he didn't want to do Oasis with his brother anymore. Understandable really, Liam is a crazy nut. One thing must be said about Noel - he can write songs but sometimes he irritates me(not as much as his brother) because he becomes his brother when they are together. So it's pretty good that he's going solo. Listening to this album, which he did for charity - one realises that he is Oasis.

Today and yesterday have been the first and second time throat lozenges have vaguely useful. Usually you take them when you're way too far down the road with a throat infection where they do little to sooth a sore throat.

So it comes as quite a surprise that actually, I'm taking them, and besides the gentle taste(raspberry I think) they are remarkably soothing - on my beginner-wannabe sore throat that payed me a visit one morning with the distinctive irritability in swallowing.

So, yeah pretty happy about that.
