Wet

Friday, July 4th, 2008

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, in the matter of Tap vs The Bottled Water Industry, we present the Case for the Prosecution…
Britons consume 3 billion litres of bottled water a year.

One feel swoop? I’m pretty sure you can get put away for that.

Bring Around “The Loaner”

Friday, May 30th, 2008

When my car needs servicing (or any kind of work for that matter) I take it to a quality little garage over in Gloucester called Cloverleaf. Unfortunately they don’t exactly have a fleet of cool little courtesy cars to lend out. In fact, remember that bit in The Mask when Stanley Ipkiss goes to the […]

ODC with OCD?

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

Do I have mild OCD? As I was searching for a pair of socks this morning I had to root through all the ones that said Monday, Saturday etc. until I found the pair with Wednesday on. Otherwise it was to be a pair with no day on.

What a weekend! Took (and passed) my CBT along with my cousin Alec. Yay us. Watched the movie Brick which is a bit artsy, a bit of a head-scratcher but is ultimately great (plus, if they need someone to take Heath Ledger’s place as the Joker the Joseph Gordon-Levitt has to the front runner as […]

That’s More Like It

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I’ve never really seen myself as a SAD sufferer but it is amazing the difference a bit of sunshine makes. The last few days have been baking hot and I have felt brilliant. It also seems that pretty much everyone I meet has been cheerier and happier.
Barring the near cardiac arrest I suffered riding […]

Lizard?

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Lindsay just came into the office:
“I’ve just seen a lizard.”
“In this country? Are you sure it wasn’t a newt?”
“It looked like a lizard. Come and see it.”
Sure enough, there was a tiny lizard basking in the sun.
Did you know there were lizards in the UK? I had no idea. Apparently they are here and they […]
