The money is the residue of that which was surplus when we bought this house after moving down from N.Bedfordshire in &#8217;87. It&#8217;s going to be used to pay for a new front and back door.<\/p>\n<p>This evening I managed to finish Half-Life 2. I can understand why some of the reviews said that the end was a bit of an anticlimax. Still, at least it didn&#8217;t have a big monster at the end and it&#8217;s definitely set up for a sequel, or possibly new chapter. It&#8217;s also somewhat longer than Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which is good, but somewhat shorter than the original Half-Life or the original Unreal. The one really disappointing thing about the game was thqt it was totally linear with only one route through the whole game.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, time for bed. Hopefully, the new pillow will give me a better sleep tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a long lay in, I got up at about 11:15am.
