In Anticipation a.k.a. Friday Night Promises

Yes.  I should sternly schedule myself this weekend.  The Rob of Friday night looks at the forthcoming weekend and decides he shall:

1)  Write more of his zombie manuscript.  "Year Three: The Combat Bicycle" to be the chapter in question.
2)  Carry on plotting rules for the Third Ypres campaign hexgame.  Also perhaps create some counters to play through rules and scenarios.
3)  Make some strawberry ice cream.  Before this blog I'd not bothered with ice-cream making, but now I have an ice-cream maker and YOU WILL PAY ATTENTION TO MY ICE-CREAM MAKING!
4)  There's a choice of dozens - and dozens and dozens and dozens - of books to read, but primary choice has to be "The Fire Engine That Disappeared" by Sjowall and Wahloo.  This is because it's a library book and is only in-loan for the next 5 days.
5)  Watch purchased DVDs.  "End Of Watch" and "The Battle for Warsaw".  Then check out website for free - free! - Bollywood fillums as informed by Manisha.

My daughter took part in "2.8 Hours Later" in central Manchester last night, and had a blast by all accounts.  I have a photo of her and her boyfriend in their zombie make-up, and may even uplode it if I manage to negotiate the data-sharing protocols of mobile phones and Blogger.

In other late-breaking news, "Dark Side of the Moon" is 40 frackin' years old this year.  I remember breaking someone's copy of this "LP" at school in the mid-70's, by accident.  This leads on to what an "LP" is - See Under "Turntable Revolution Rate".  33, 45, 78.
