Strikes, walking, Futurama, Falling Skies and Hit And Miss

Travel today was hampered by Unite arranging bus strikes over bonus pay for the Olympics so I had to rely on a lift from Toni but it did mean I was late in *grumble grumble*

Got well back into my stride on the walking front today with a good 3.94 mile stint that was most invigorating! I even managed a slightly more interesting route as well which made a nice change, details are here:

It was an unremarkable day at work and it was a great relief to get out and head home. Roast chicken and chips started the wind down process. We then went into TV catch up mode as we were behind on a few things. The first two progs were welcome return season premieres.

First up was Futurama which continues to impress with good storyline and plenty of laughs. Not bad considering this is now the seventh season. Next up was the second season premiere of Falling Skies the post alien invasion series. This picked up well where the last one left off and has me hooked already and longing for the next episode!

Finally we caught up with episodes four and five of Hit And Miss the trans hit woman show. I'm really not sure about this series. It has flashes of brilliance but falls foul of a lack of reality and some shocking plot holes. Things have taken an unexpected turn and it will be interesting to see how they finish off the series. It's a brave concept that is marred by the execution in places. It's definitely worth a watch though as its different from the usual shows we get these days.
