i went to an italian restaurant today with a colleague. the management were obviously obsessed with coffee and had put signs up all round the room and in red on the bottom of the menu warning about people having milky coffee with their meals. it’s tone was very aggressive.
update: due to popular demand, you can now click the image for a bigger version. however, i didn’t expect you to read it when i took it so i may need another trip to get a better shot. pizza anyone ?
i’ve been in two places in the last few days where the wearing of floatation devices was a possibility. in both cases i’ve considered putting my life jacket on prior to an emergency so as to be ready in case the unlikely event happened.
jane, my wife, suggested this might cause panic on both the airplane and touristy canal boat so i left them tightly packed away for their own safety under my seat.
it seems community police(wo)men have opted for the safe approach. here are two with their life jackets round their backs. they were also quite reflective of my camera flash.
but what does this mean ?
maxx sent me mini 263 which he saw on his recent trip to london. i feel this blog has many eyes and i like it.
it’s another street coaster:
these inflatables are in a window leading down some stairs to what i assume is some kind of recording or TV studio.
one morning (before cameras began) i saw the Edge from U2 appear from this door, and another time i spotted (and photo’d) the Sugarbabes when they were at number 1 in the modern hit parade.
today it’s just inflatable sea creatures.
i’m not sure whether this is top DJ tim westwood’s car or simply a car which advertises him as a person. it’s covered floor to ceiling with his name.
i’m thinking of getting one done for funkypancake. maybe not.
melted ice-cream in a tub. it had a fantastically subtle green colouring which you can just about see in the photo.
that’s right, jane and i went to visit one of my favouritist dog signs.
plenty more pictures to follow (i took over 300, but won’t bore you with them all just yet). and we’ve still one more day of scottish photos first.
feel free to use the drinking fountain. just don’t drink the water.
i think the sign is deliberately up high so that kids don’t see it and get poisoned. that’s not very nice is it ?
we don’t have too many mirrors in our house. sometimes it’s best that way.
i love smarties. their chocolate goodness enclosed in a crunchy shell. mmm. these were particularly welcome on a cold day halfway up a mountain.
being a father of girls is a worry. especially with little plastic chaps like this about. his tongue was hanging out and everything. luckily esther wasn’t too impressed and the moment passed without trouble.
