Damn, that's upset me!

short trips

am going to the uni for a blood test, maybe stop in a library, maybe do some light food shopping (bread), and go home

cameo

I've decided to add some of the Up Pompeii bunch in one of my webcomics. It'll only be a cameo appearance, but I've already co-opted and renamed characters from at least three series of novels set in ancient rome, so add characters from a TV show shouldn't be too hard!

Will keep me "busy" while recovering at home.
