There's a certain well known supermarket here in the UK that has started advertising a deal they have on choclates for Valentines day. Two thoughts immediately occur. Firstly is any guy likely to buy them for his significant other as if the other has also seen this advert their going to look really, really cheap for buying them half price choccies for V day. Secondly if this deal is intended for Valentines day why the heck is it running until the 15th?
Still it still makes slightly more sense then the deal in another supermarket where you could buy four tins of baked beans in a pack for £2.25 or you could buy five tins of the same baked beans individually for £2. I don't think someone in that marketing department thought that one through. Especially as the packs and individual tins were right next to each other.
It was also somewhat packed in town today which we were quite surprised about. I'm guessing lot of people who would have gone in earlier in the week couldn't because of the snow so decided to leave it until today.
It was also Tap dances birthday so we took her out to lunch in Loughborough. I got her some bits for her Nintendo DS which she is still on a thin line between loving and loathing as the brain training game is driving her mad right now.
I also think that I need to go up to Leicester to visit borders soon as the only bookshop in Loughborough has a really poor selection of books as despite a real close inspection of all of the bookshelves I couldn't find anything interesting in the slightist.
Speaking of shops the Zaavi in Loughborough has finally closed. I guess they couldn't struggle through any longer. This does now mean that theres nowhere major selling DVD's etc in the town centre. Hopefully this means that thers a good chance HMV might decide to move in as theres no one else now in Loughborough to compete with.
It was the last in the series of Demons tonight. It was good, in fact one of the better ones in the series, however I'm not entirely sure it's not going to be a case of too little too late. There was also a heck of a lot of revelations but theres been no build up and with out this some things seemed to be coming a little too much out of left field. Still if it does get to a 2nd series there are quite a few interesting plot threads for it to pick up and the last shot in the episode was full of potential for next series as well.
Anyway,
Later folks!

I wonder if the £2 beans deal was to do with the 'use by' date. Not that it ever bothered me.
