What I've been ...

Watching:
- The Shooting Party on BBC2
- The General, with Buster Keaton

Reading:
- The Cruel Sea, by Nicholas Monsarrat
- bits and pieces of Mirror Dance by Lois McMaster Bujold, Thrones and Dominations by Dorothy L Sayers and Jill Paton Walsh, and several other books - I'm finding it difficult to settle to anything at the moment

Listening to:
- The Greatest Rock Album in the World Ever, Vol 2

Buying:
- sherry, port and madeira for the moot

Doing:
- getting stressed at work - there are (confidential) Developments, which will be making my job more, er, interesting
- fretting about things - does anyone have any good tips for calming oneself down?

Useless

The magazine "The Actuary" has started an e-mail alert service; you tell it what sort of article, job ad etc you are interested in, and it sends you an alert if there's anything in each month's issue that meets your criteria. And what does the alert say? "This month's issue contains articles and / or job adverts that may be of interest to you."

And that's all. No titles, no trailers, no page numbers, no weblinks, no nothing. How utterly useless!
