Bank Holiday Weekend

Today I trimmed the adverts out of the Cagney and Lacey episodes I’d transferred over and found another one where the quality is unacceptable as it keeps blipping. Unfortunately that one is an episode that was aired just last week so it’ll be several months before it comes around again which is irritating but not altogether unexpected.

I also burnt the first DVD. It’s not particularly pretty when it loads, just a generic blue screen with a thumbnail and episode name next to it in slots, with several empty slots. It’ll only take two episodes per disc as each episode is 35% so there’s just not quite enough room. That doesn’t matter though because it works and that’s the main thing. As it’s only for me it doesn’t have to look all pretty, that’s what the official boxset has to be like, hopefully when it’s eventually released. However, that does make for rather a lot of discs. There’s four for season three and that only covers seven episodes. Still, not to worry the boxes aren’t that expensive and I can put several in the same container, they do that in commercial ones so I know it’s ok.

I’m going to my grandparents tomorrow evening after dinner to escape the street. Every year on the May bank holiday they hold a street fair and every year we run away so they won’t come knocking on our door at 6am telling us to move our bloody cars. On monday we’re planning on having Chinese takeout as part of a birthday celebration. Then in the afternoon mum and I are going to go to the cinema to see Made of Honour. I’ll make sure to do a review when I come back.
