Anecdotal evidence
I'm going into hospital for a hip replacement tomorrow. I'm strangely excited. No-one likes surgery, of course, but I'm looking at it as just another adventure. And I do like adventure. More importantly, I've started planning all the things I'm going to do once I'm all healed up - and the list is looking good.

Of course I’ve seen every episode. At least once. Some quite a lot more than that. And sure, lines like “I have a cunning plan, milord” and “How did you get so much custard out of such a small cat?” and “Life without you would be like a pencil without lead… pointless” and “Will it be left breasty-dumpling or right breasty-dumpling?” and “Great Boo’s up!” and “Run for the hills” - “They’re coming from the hills” - “Run away from the hills, run awaaay from the hills!” and “Stupidy stupidy stupids… stupidy stupid stupids” and “Sincere appalowgees” and “Whoops… butterfingers!” long ago became part of my everyday lexicon… BUT THE POINT IS I NOW OWN THE WHOLE SET THEY’RE MINE MINE MINE AND I SHALL WATCH THEM ALL AGAIN MANY MANY TIMES AND REPLAY THE REALLY FUNNY BITS AS MUCH AS I LIKE AND NOW THE WORLD IS PERFECT. *happy sigh*
