11111

Today is 11 January, for another half an hour or so. And today is one of those numerically notable dates in that it can be written with just one digit - 11/1/11. Sometimes days like these (or similar ones like 12/11/10) appear all the time, and sometimes they take ages to come round again. For example, the last time that we had a single digit day was on New Year's Day, and we'll get a couple more in November, but then they won't come around again for another 11 years.

It was a red letter day at home today, thanks to a couple of deliveries. Jake's game arrived. He'd remembered playing a game when Paul visited a couple of years ago and brought his Xbox, but Jake couldn't remember what it was called. Thankfully we tracked a copy down at the weekend and ordered it online. The other delivery was Nicky's food mixer, so I am looking forward to cakes at the weekend.

By the way, thanks to Kate for the comment. If I knew how to comment on comments then I would (although might be a challenge from the iPad). Wasn't meant to be a poem, just a short and sweet blog, but glad you liked it!
