Back in blighty and back to coughing, sneezing, shouting at other drivers and moving at twice the pace.

At least beer is sold in pints here. That's something, right ...

I'm glad you had such a good time.  The Caribbean islands are so beautiful.  I don't know if I'll be back there in a long time.

New idea for Alien series.  Alien and aged Sigourney Weaver come to common terms and team up to save the universe from some looming threat.   They succeed and realize the benefits that come from not trying to kill one another.  They go on a road trip and find a race of hybrid Alien/Humans that manage to create a paradise out of simple planetary elements.  The end.

We went to the cinima here and watched Alien: Romulus. All I can say about the film - and especially the ending -  is, was that really necessary? I mean, really!? That's just bent up dude.

I'd be surprised to find homes "fully insulated" in Florida.  What kind of materials is the house constructed from?  There were forms of lightweight aggregate concrete that were intended to insulate against heat in places like Teheran, but those were deployed in slab concrete construction of modest single family homes.  The house we are moving into has no insulation, either, and it's in a place with much colder winters.  So that's something we will have to pay to fix.
