Watch Flip

A , posted by Anthony around mid-afternoon.

I’ll do a long, long post very soon, I promise. Lots to blog about, what with parents visiting, working on shorts, meeting people and such. But later.

For now, I just want to reassure everybody that I did manage to read the end of “Single and Single”, so you can all relax. I actually went back to the Strand, and read one of their other copies while lurking in the aisle.

Also, I’ve added an email notification feature, so I want to see if that works. I’ve taken the liberty of re-signing up the people who were on the list before. Sorry if that’s not your wish – it should be fairly easy to unsubscribe.

But the most momentous thing involves a watch that my parents bought for me in Century 21. Not the watch itself, although it’s very nice, but rather my decision to start wearing it on my left wrist.

All my life, I’ve worn my watches on the right wrist, which is apparently very wrong and unusual. I believe this to be my parents’ fault, as my sister does the same thing. But now I’m switching over. It feels really weird, but I firmly believe that this will turn my luck around – that everything will be different from this day forward.

Do you doubt me? Ha! We shall see. Or I’ll see, and tell you.

    You see Anthony, you’re slowly becoming normal. Before you know it you’ll be a Mac person!

    Oh wait, I got that the wrong way round.

    Actually, for your information, I have been wearing my watch on the left wrist for some years now.
    Where is all the information about The Visit? Get Dad to write a blog entry!!!
    By the way, you all need to keep your fingers crossed for us this weekend. Jim is entering a competition in this year’s bottle show this weekend. It’s called ’12 Bottles of Beer on the Wall’ and it is a display of Wallsend bottles complete with wall and the river Tyne, not to mention a bit of coal sprinkled about.So wish us luck!

    Are you right-handed then, Anthony? I wear mine on the right side for tennis as there’s no chance of bashing my watch with my my racket that way.

    Anthony has frequently chastised me for not posting enough. He’s now doing the opposite though.

    Why am I a fascist all of a sudden?

    Yeah, I’m right handed. And Nigel is a fascist – he’s got the moustache and everything!
