Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

Lost

It's getting very good. However, I'm a bit concerned at the viewing figures in the USA going down. They have got the right balance between the plain wierd and the just about credible - they don't want to put any more gimmicks in.

The Lost fansites are a pain though. The fact the UK gets the series a good few months after the USA (mainly because we don't consider a series/season to have repeats breaking up the run of new episodes to allow it to run for 52 weeks) means that if you know where to look, you can easily find out what has happened in the second series. I DON'T WANT TO KNOW YET... Also, there are some very sad people out there - to spot some of the facts that are on the forums (see, for example, the forums at Channel4.com/lost) you have to record the episode and then watch it back frame by frame. The "logo" on the shark's tail is nothing more than a blur, as far as I can see.

I like Lost too. My lovely friend Pete gets it from the States so I've already seen most of the second series. It's a bad thing in a way because I can't join in with any of the excitement here, but it saves waiting a week for the next episode.
