Although today was the first day of 2004, it was actually the second entry in the main paper diaries. Tomorrow's entry was the first.

Today's weather: Cloudy and Wet.

That night I slept in my bed in 3rd Headquarters (yet again yeah).

Breakfast was Oat Krunchies.

I started work on constructing the model of a Manned V2 (one of my Christmas 2003 presents), then tidied upstairs for an hour.

Afterwards, I went to the Normal Walk. At the Normal Walk, the Viscount stood in a one-millimetre-deep wet patch on the road, and for some reason, this greatly angered the Overgod.

Dinner was tomato sauce pasta.

In the next few hours, I worked on and COMPLETED the Manned V2 model. With today's work done, I went downstairs and watched the DVD of ‘Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas’ (a cartoon Sinbad).

Tea was cheese and pickle buns and chicken flavour crisps.

I talked to the Emperor about the models of the T34/76 and T34/85 (Russian WWII tanks) and Jagdpanzer (German).

Supper was crushed Oat Krunchies.

Back in 3rd Headquarters, I played some ‘Quake’ on the Packard Bell computer (a.k.a. Computer 4).

I also read pages 22 to 26 of ‘The Silmarillion’ by J. R. R. Tolkien, then went to sleep.
