Aroma of slow roasting lamb is pervading the house. Got a digital thermometer on the oven to make sure the temperature is just right. (150°C Fan)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Just got the first season of Iron Blooded Orphans Gundam animé. Supposed to be Japanese speech with English subs, the way it should be. 25 episodes in 1080p.
Second season is currently airing.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Well, after a few toxic months with my manager we had a long talk whilst working last week and things have been so much better since then. It's exactly like how it used to be before I let my feelings get in the way which is excellent.
Also, asked for and was approved a day's holiday in February to go to Portsmouth Dockyard to activate a year's pass for 2.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Just got another new animé to watch sometime. Cowboy Bebop. It's dubbed but also has a Japanese audio track available and English subtitles.
Quote:
The series premiered in Japan on TV Tokyo from April 3 until June 26, 1998, broadcasting only twelve episodes and a special due to its controversial adult-themed content. The entire twenty-six episodes of the series were later broadcast on WOWOW from October 24 until April 24, 1999.

Just had a sneak preview of the first episode. Beautiful animation and very violent.

That's the nice thing about actually owning a copy of something. You're not at the mercy of those who wish to regulate your viewing.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Tracked down another animé that I've been looking to get: The original series of Aeon Flux that was shown on MTV's Liquid Television slot in the early 90's.
The team that produced this also did "Matriculated" in the Animatrix spin off.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Mrs Osem had another really nice morning treating patients and their carers at our local hospice. I must admit I'd worried that the emotional toll on her might be too much but so far she's come across some wonderful people and despite hearing some terribly sad tales she's coped very well and felt she's at least contributed something positive to their lives at an awful time. I'm proud of her.

@ Osem your wife is worth her weight in gold imo, takes someone very special and caring to do that job.

Thanks weenie yes she is very special and I wouldn't change her for the world. In all the doom and gloom about the NHS etc. it's easy to forget about all the volunteers and staff who do their best to help others in very trying circumstances. She told me about 2 elderly volunteers who help out at the hospice serving hot drinks and biscuits to the patients and carers. Apparently they're well into their 80's but still giving to others.
