Reports Done

Another dull and overcast day. Did just two shops today, one in Ashford and one in Canterbury. Anyway, just finished the two reports after watching two more episodes of Charmed.

For some reason i did not have the energy to do anything else. Canterbury was unusually busy today with a few busloads of Spanish tourists visiting as i recognized the lingo.

Talking of said lingual nuances, last night i watched a DVD of the gentle amusing comedy "Spanglish" starring Adam Sandler It was quite enjoyable.
