Heroes

They are currently showing the first season of Heroes on BBC 2. It started a few weeks ago (episode 3 is on tonight). And its already turning into some quasi-intriguing phenomenon. It's popular with the people. Example 1: at an estate agents last week one of the agents was looking at some Heroes website in lieu of, um, letting. Examples following that: it's come up on numerous occurences in random conversation. What is suprising is that many of these people have seen at least some episodes before by various means. It will be interesting to see how things progress as the season goes on. Will people lose interest? Will it be wildly popular?

And they changed all the toilet paper dispensers in the library over night. Instead of rolls now they are like upside down boxes of kleenex. Its an interesting move. I can't help but wonder what exactly brought this change about. Are little individual pieces of toilet paper more environmentally friendly? Cheaper? Most importantly, what have they done with all the old toilet paper dispensers? If they had extras I would have taken one. Those rolls of Charmin just keep getting bigger and bigger. A commercial sized toilet paper holder could come in VERY handy.

Tomorrow is day two of 'flat' searching. And with any luck, bangers and mash or whatever they call it over at Belgos. Beat the clock! What a deal.
