I just examined my bank statement online (I do this occasionally after my credit card fraud incident last year) and found that my bank has REFUNDED me $3.71 of a $4 overseas ATM withdrawal fee (I suppose from when I was in NZ... in January.. although it doesn't say when this overseas transaction fee that has now been partially refunded was incurred). That is really really strange. Because I'm a student I'm exempt from most fees, but overseas and non-my bank withdrawals are not waived. And why would they wait four months to refund it? All very odd. Maybe it's actually a refund from Vietnam... that was about 15 months ago. Or perhaps Switzerland in 1998?

Ah well, I'm sure they'll reclaim it some other way.

Didn't end up watching Sylvania Waters. Stayed to the end of the murder show, then watched some of Parkinson until I finished the cranial fossae. Not because I was particularly interested in Parkinson, but I couldn't be bothered to change channels as there really wasn't anything else on. And the Vicar was still upstairs. Which is quite pathetic because "upstairs" is only 6 stairs. More of a psychological boundary I suppose. Something very unnatural about opposing gravity. They don't call it a law for nothing!

Now I would like someone to get home so that I can announce my banking windfall before I go to bed. Perhaps this counts as an announcement?
