Or so I am informed by a gentleman who kindly (and unsolicitedly) sent me news of an investment opportunity this morning. Anyway, I am blessed by a Small presence today. Having fairly comprehensively redecorated his bedroom earlier he has been just sitting looking glum this morning. Very unlike him. So we have added to the […]
Going to the dogs
Thieves may be specifically targeting Staffordshire Bull Terriers, a report obtained by the BBC says….. The report, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, says some criminals may be using the dogs to guard “criminal assets”. Must be tricky…. I have stolen a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, how shall I guard it? I know, I will […]
Life On Helpdesk vol 2
I have posted Call Centre before …… but they are both very good and worth a second watch IMHO.
Radiation, Die, Run
The UN has come up with a new warning sign for radiation. Nods to The Register Seems to go a little far, and I am wondering if other warning signs need to be redesigned to match. Here is one I thought might be good….. Warning, supermarket car park ahead.
Small 3.7
…or thereabouts. I have just stripped Big’s latest efforts from her camera and she seems to be getting better. I liked this one of Small very much. I do think photography is a great thing for them to be doing – elements of art, science and craft all rolled into one. Aren’t digital cameras wonderful? […]
The Mermaid
Per request, here is the mermaid/kit doll, complete with sustifficate. ….and various other bits of stuff. Sorry, needlecraft is pretty much totally lost on me, the only thing I can say about crochet and sewing is that they are a lot less annoying than knitting.

Model Railway Scenery
NSFW! (not suitable for work) These crack me up. I have been banned from putting pictures in this post, but here are the links….. Police Raid on a Brothel and Admiring the Scenery I take no responsibility, all at your own risk, don’t blame me. (with a nod to The Register) German model railways derailed […]
Intense
Big has “discovered” a set of Usborne How To Draw books and since they describe how to draw fairies, princesses and ballerinas, she has been working really quite hard at them. The results are rather impressive, I didn’t know she could do that. 🙂
Super Slim Me
“…Writer and TV presenter Dawn Porter is on an all-consuming mission… can she shrink from her curvy UK size 12 figure to the much touted super-skinny Hollywood zero (UK size 4)? Surviving on a diet of just 500 calories a day (a quarter of the daily recommended amount for a woman!), she hunts down the […]
