Well there was more wind than flood, but “After The Wind” didn’t seem like such a good title. Still the weekend was fun, even if the camping left something to be desired. I must admit, I am disappointed that our tent (Vango Venture 500), allegedly (I wasn’t there to see it) failed to stand up […]

Like, like
But the best bit is the (fictitious?) organisation who have supposedly published the poster. “Acadamy Of Linguistic Awarness”. Oh dear.
Dumped!
Her first love. Harry was Big’s first baby doll, she chose him herself from the shop, when she was barely over a year old. Now, heartless, fickle hussy that she is, poor Harry sobs silently to himself, neglected, forgotten, on a shelf at our old house.
Mr Fantastic
Oliver Stone’s film W. is currently in post-production. Should be fun: George Bush Laura Bush Condoleeza Rice General Colin Powell Saddam Hussein Tony Blair (and presumably that must be Cherie? …. no, that is Jessica Alba, Cherie is the Invisible Woman) W (imdb)
Marketing-Driven Logic
…. Indeed, if Labour’s present financial straits do lead it (as some predict) to seek a limited liability corporate structure, there would be a case for the cash-rich (but in inner-city patches of Britain, votes-poor) Conservative Party to stage a hostile bid – or to buy Labour from the Administrator, who would presumably be obliged […]

Anti-Tourism Ads
Made me laugh. Each week two of the advertising industry’s finest agencies are pitted against each other and challenged with selling the unsellable. … Which anti-tourism campaign ad do you think will work better? The Pitch
No Cobwebs
Today, Big went off with a little friend to Manor Heath Park to do the usual running round in circles, with a bit of making stuff thrown in. So, I took Small to Castle Hill. If you have been to Huddersfield, you have almost certainly seen it. There is a tower on top, erected for […]
Hard At Work
No idea what the red thing is, but I suspect by now, it is no more. The two ants were determined to take it home with them….. “Mum, look what we found!”
A Walk In The Park
We are fortunate that we live in between two parks, the larger, Wellholme Park is very crowded during school hols, but is lovely. Today we went to the other park for the first time. When we arrived, there were a bunch of young adolescents cluttering the swings, but they shambled off at the sight of […]
