You know you're getting old when you celebrate the wife being away with reading a book :D

book looks brilliant :tu:

it's amazing how therapeutic, 'just your own company' can be - in small doses, of course, when 'normal' life is full of hustle & bustle.:)

- don't be using it as an excuse to get your post count up :pp - I remember a similar weekend when I was 'home alone' - and look where it got me :shrug: :D

Grolsch and Budvar... Good man. Not too sure about the organic wine, but I was happy to found a case of the non-organic variety in the back garden as I came home today :D

[pedantic]pilsner, not 'beer' :pp [/pedantic]

the red wine sounds good, as well ;)

The title of this book, After the Ice: A Global Human History 20,000-5000 BC , I thought that the last ice age didn't end until about 12,000 years ago. Surely it was still cold, cold, cold 20,000 years ago.

It was. "Soon after 20 000BC global warming began. Initially this was rather slow and uneven.....by 15 000BC the great ice sheets had begun to melt....."
Apparently 20 000BC is known as the last glacial maximum (LGM), after which things started to get warmer.
Good book, I recommend it :)

Well wife and kids are home again and it's really nice :ghugs: :romance: :)
...though I must say the past three days on my own have been very nice. Mostly I have stuck to the Atkins diet (sausages) and been drinking beer :D . Lots of Taichi and CoD and of course my post count has gone through the roof :erm:
It's been great but I prefer it when they are here. *mutters*...must be mad :D
