K gets home from work armed with wine designed to see off an up-and-down week with style. My contribution is to sort out some home made potato wedges covered in far more cayenne pepper than is medically advisable to go with our equally spicy pizza. The food goes down well and we make sure to eat it far away from the pristine new sofa - though luckily no such restriction is extended to the wine (we got a red sofa for a reason).
K does a bit of sewing while I sit in the living room and make decent progress with some writing and photo editing I've been meaning to do for a while. Eventually she comes to join me in time for Never Mind the Buzzcocks - which seems to be doing well in these post-Amstell days of HIGNFY-style guest presenters. The only downside is the presence of some-sort-of-singer Paloma Faith, who has that irritating habit some women do of talking like a baby to get away with saying things that would otherwise just be stupid. She's probably so used to boys finding her adorable that she wouldn't be able to stop now if she tried.
Later on we watch Something's Gotta Give, which comes on ITV1 - an enjoyable chick flick starring a still-loveable Diane Keaton playing a character who could plausibly be a grown-up Annie Hall. Jack Nicholson is also very good as the ageing playboy coming to terms with his age and working through the conflict of finding himself attracted to a woman nearer his age. It goes on very late though, and K eventually convinces me to give up on it (I have seen it before) and go to bed before it gets to silly o'clock.
