It took me a good 5 seconds to work out that this sad story wasn't about the HBO series Sopranos...

Weekend of not a tremendous lot
This weekend I will mostly be doing...
Sitting on arse, gardening, barbecuing, sleeping, watching The Sopranos.
I'm probably doing nothing tonight, which will be nice. It was my old flatmate's birthday drinks yesterday so I had a couple of glasses of wine with her.
Tomorrow I'll be gardening with April before she heads off to Sophie's Hen night round Harriet's. I've been left on my own so not sure what i'll do. Liverpool are on TV, and i've loads of recorded movies so won't be too bored.
There's not much left to do (immediately) in the garden but there's still a few weeds to pull out and it would be nice to add a few new plants to the back garden before everyone comes over next week.

Sunday should be more fun, with my Dad and his wife Ann heading over. Steve and Jenny will be there too so i'll be getting a loan of the new Wire and Steve's pressure washer. The cats that have been spraying in my garden won't know what's hit them.

The Sopranos

I have been a member of Lovefilm for about 6 months now. I think it's pretty good, a lot better than going to Blockbusters to find that they have no recent films available (Clapham High Street Branch).
Being a wonderful boyfriend I stupidly split the account in half which let April choose half of the DVDs we hire. 25% of her choices are good 50% are okay, the rest bad. She’s had the last one for over two months.
By bad I don’t mean they are bad films, I mean that I don’t really want to watch them. They have stories and stuff and probably won Oscars but when was last gun fight or explosion made during one? I can tell you, never. I get home after a ‘hard’ days work, dialog is the last thing I want to see.
My latest rental has been the first series of The Sopranos. What a great series, a lot of my friends are jealous because they have watched all 6 series and know that there will be no more, I however have 5 more to watch. I am contradicting myself somewhat as The Sopranos is very character driven and therefore has a great deal of dialog, but who cares. It’s great. If you haven’t watched them yet, then you’re in for a treat.
Another great series shown on the same network is The Wire. Again excellent, again great characters, again great story. My brother is hooked so all I have to do is borrow them off him.
My next rental is Rambo! He, he! I’ll have to wait till April’s out of the house though as I’m not sure if she would appreciate the artistic way a guy gets ripped in half by a machine gun.
