Day 793

Slept a comfortable nine hours. Had a terrible dream that ABC had moved to a fire-trap skyscraper I'd actually read about in the Mirror in the week. I was being given more and more incomprehensible things to do as the building burned.

Was quite glad to get up and tape the first of the new series of The Masterson Inheritance. Borrowed mum's car and drove to PC World in the hope of finding a legit copy of Quick C, but (typically) now I've got the money it's disappeared from the shelves. Came back and looked in the computer shop here in Mugsborough, finding a rack of shareware - proper shareware that's in the Software Source catalogue - for £5 a disc (cheaper than sending for it, up to a certain number because of the postage). I may go back for more with the catalogue in the week. Got Envision Publisher (very good and faster than Page Maker) and Draft Choice.

Nice to really appreciate something for a change - the day off I mean.
