Death by Darts.

I think I might have said in a blog...I hate sport.
I'm not picky...it isn't just one sport I hate, I hate them all.
Yesterday was dire. Normally we go for a bus ride...exercise our bus pass, but the forecast of inclement weather put himself off that idea.
I had lots of stuff I could have been doing....a backlog of housework, but I didn't feel disposed to don the marigolds and get down and dirty in the bathroom.....I didn't feel like tackilng the cobweb in the Lobby...running the dyson over the best bit of brussels was as much as I wanted to do...that and make the bed.

Himself was lounging in a recumbent position watching the TV.....Aussie rules, then Premier League football...then some American hogwash...and then last night, it was Darts. Darts...I ask you? when did Darts become a spectator sport?

Thank goodness for my computer, a backlog of photographs and a little editing program called Snapseed....I retreated to mess with my pics......and returned to the living room at around 9pm...he had just put Boardwalk Empire on.....that was me, done, I took my mug of tea to bed with me and settled down with that nice boy...Bill Bryson...so if you want to know what i was doing last night...I was in bed with Bill Bryson!
 
I don't like sport either.I feel very lucky that himself isn't into it-there's enough things he's into that I disapprove of :)
 
The only sport I can watch is Horse Jumping. I hate the aggression in sports, but I suppose that's the point for a lot of folk. Thank goodness Hubby feels the same way, but we do differ on our choice of TV shows. He loves watching shows about airplane crashes, natural disasters, wars etc. So we have the perfect solution: two TVs.
 
I'm not sure two TV's would work...he moans when I secrete myself away to surf the internet.......it is as is I have gone out and left him...the poor wee thing that he is.
He doesn't realise that I could be out with a group of ladies playing bingo and spending money.
If he wants me to sit in the living room with him, then he has to have a wider taste in TV programs.
