Attempt no. 4 ended in abject failure: they've dismantled the coin machine!

wtf?

I suppose I could have asked them if there is another way to get rid of the coins, or if there is another bank office somewhere in town that handles coins -- but I have neither the time nor the inclination to queue for an hour simply to be told "No!"

So I guess I'll bring the metal box to Orust when I go to my parents in a couple of week, and try my luck at the bank there. I know it used to be a real bank office, but maybe they've become snotty like every other bank office now. We'll see, the saga continues...

TV!

Soon I will watch "Spartacus", as ordered by lunatic. Yessir! But first some more "Doctor Who" re-watching.... after having finished "The Clone Wars" the series.

I liked it! Especially Anakin, whom they have drawn grim and brooding like he should be, and the voice actor has given him that gung-ho Luke-in-A-New-Hope quality which makes a really nice contrast to his face. And Obi-Wan's actor has chosen to make him completely camp! Think Cosmo Devine in "Invaders From Mars" level of camp. Haha! Move over, Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor interpretations of the character, he will now always be soooo gay to me. *snigger*

The animation is kinda awkward, in that LEXX way where there is amazing things going on technically at the same time as embarrassingly wobbly sets. Like, there are some really interesting alien landscapes, and they do faces quite well, but all the figures walk like they're in some really old video game. Oh, and the droid soldiers are really funny. I want to watch more!
